We often hear trainers say how “lucky” they are to have been invited to run a workshop or to hold a presentation. Of course, they can mean that “sie haben Glück gehabt”, but more often than not, they mean that they are very “happy” to be there.So perhaps next time you address a group of people say something like:
I’d just like to say how great it is to be here today to work with you.
I’d just like to say how pleased I am to be here to talk to you today.
I’d just like to say how pleased I am to be here to talk to you today.
I’m so happy to be here today.
