1
Thank you for agreeing to meet me in person.
2
Let's not beat around the bush. I'm far from happy.
3
I completely understand, and that's why I'm here.
4
The launch campaign missed its deadline by two weeks.
5
We lost our slot with three major retailers.
6
You're right, and I won't make excuses for it.
7
We underestimated the production schedule.
8
And we didn't flag the risk early enough.
9
That's on us, not on your team.
10
Well, I appreciate the honesty, at least.
11
But frankly, I'm considering taking our business elsewhere.
12
I'd understand if you did. But please hear me out first.
13
I've put together a plan to make up for lost ground.
14
Go on, then. You've got five minutes.
15
First, we'll waive our fees for this quarter entirely.
16
Second, you'll have a dedicated project lead, reporting directly to me.
17
And you'll get weekly progress updates, no exceptions.
18
That's more than I expected, I'll admit.
19
What guarantee do I have this won't happen again?
20
If we miss another agreed deadline, you can walk away, no penalty.
21
You're confident enough to put that in the contract?
22
I am. I'd rather earn your trust than ask for it.
23
All right. I'll give you one more quarter.
24
But I'll be watching very closely.
25
That's all I'm asking for. You won't regret it.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
