Jonas Ott has just started a six-month work placement at Russell Engineering, a large company in York, England. On his first day, Jonas finds an email from Ms Hunt, the Personnel Manager, in his mailbox. Read the email. A) Decide whether the statements below are true or false and correct the false statements. B) Based on Ms Hunt's email, draw an organization chart showing the heads of the different departments at Russell Engineering. From: d.hunt@russell...uk To: j.ott@russell...uk Subject: information on Russell's organization Dear Jonas, As I will be on a two-week seminar when you start your internship at our company, I thought you might like a short overview of the company and the people you will be working with for the next six months. Well, starting at the top, there is the Managing Director, Mr Russell. He oversees six different departments. One of the departments is HR, where I work as the Personnel Manager. There is also Sarah Simons, my Personal Assistant. The Head of HR is my boss, Ms Lee. Then we have a Production department, led by Mr Martin. Also in this department we have Ms Bunt, the Warehouse Manager and Mr Bennett, our experienced Production Manager. Mr Bennett is in charge of Ms Fisher and Mr Miles, and also of Mary Harrison, a Junior Assistant. Our Engineering department is led by Mr Ferguson who is assisted by two Chief Engineers, Ms Fletcher and Mr Phelan. We have 16 Junior Engineers, including John Walters and Felix Brown, who all report to the Foremen, Frank Schwarz and Ken Wooton. Moving on to the Advertising department, we have Mr Morgan, the Advertising Clerk who reports to Dave Kelly, the company’s Marketing Manager. Fiona Brown is the Sales Representative; she and Emma Millany, the Sales Assistant, report to Sales Manager Ms Morris. They all belong to the Sales and Marketing department which is under the leadership of George Fowler. Our small Legal department is run by Susan Glider, who reports directly to Mr Russell. And finally, there are the people who deal with the numbers, such as keeping an overview of what the company spends and earns: Mr Shaun’s Finance department. Mr Shaun is supported by our new Accountant, Ben Smith, who reports to Finance Manager Betty Davis. I hope this helps. If you have any questions, just call Sarah. She will be happy to help you until I get back. Best wishes, Doris Hunt Statements True False 1. Frau Hunt ist die Geschäftsführerin von Russell Engineering. 2.

In diesem Fall, d. h. wenn sich die Frage auf das Subjekt bezieht, erfolgt keine Umschreibung mit do/does/did.
