Learn English – “The way it’s going to work” versus “how this is going to work”

phrase-usage

Let's say I am working on some project which has very many steps or stages, and I am supposed to explain their order to my colleagues:

The way it's going to work is A will do X first then C will do Y etc.

How this is going to work is A will do X first then C will do Y etc.

Are these expression correct? Do they sound natural?

Best Answer

Your bold-font phrases are standard informal English. There are many ways to express the idea, e.g., "Here's how it'll work: first A will do X, then C will do Y, then E will do Z, and, finally, G will do the last part."

Explaining the order of things is easier using a chart or just a piece of paper and a pencil. Your English seems good enough that you should be able to handle this without worrying about being understood.
