Translation: (max. 16 points) points Musím připustit, že naše společné rozhodnutí nebude předloženo vedení firmy, protože by určitě odmítli prodloužit konečný termín, a všechny důvěrné záležitosti, které hrají klíčovou roli v našem výzkumu, by byly prozrazeny. Kromě toho našemu týmu nemohl dominovat úspěch závisející pouze na vhodném rozhodovacím procesu, výkonném předsedajícím, kladném přístupu k zadaným úkolům a nepřítomnosti problémových členů naší skupiny.
