			<description>My conversations typically look like this...

Our situation is A.  This causes problems B, C, and D.  I propose we do E which means our situation will change to F.

Depending on the reaction, this might continue with, &quot;if we could solve that issue, do you have any other objections to doing this&quot; AND/OR &quot;who do we need to talk to make this happen?&quot;

Some situations also have multiple options to deal with the problem though I'll usually recommend a preferred one. - Jason Yip</description>
