How is X positioned? Explanation: I don't think it is meant in a strictly geographical sense, but rather relative to the competition. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2017-08-27 16:52:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The follow up would then be "Where do we go from here?" |

peer agreement (net): +1Where do we stand (as a company)? Explanation: I would prefer the first person plural over the third person. Sounds better in English. |

Where are we now? Explanation: The first and second of these headings are third person, but then there is a shift to first person plural. Whoever wrote your source text was stylistically inconsistent, but that doesn't mean you have to be. Heading 3 clearly shows that the document is being released by the company itself, therefore the name of the company is self-evident. Where are we now? Where do we go next? What do our customers expect from us? |
