Welcome to Business French Explained. I'm Philippe and I spent years working in French offices before I started this show. This episode covers Business French Meetings Deadlines Office Vous because those three topics create the biggest headaches for professionals dealing with French teams. Textbook French gives you polite greetings and basic thanks. It falls short the moment a meeting runs over or a manager sets a hard deadline. You end up guessing whether to push back or stay silent. The same gap appears with office vous. Colleagues may keep the formal pronoun long after you expect a switch to tu. That choice signals respect or distance depending on the company culture. The thing is most learners never hear how these moments actually play out. They learn phrases that sound fine in class but feel awkward when the clock is ticking. Meanwhile a single wrong word can make you seem unprepare
