Signification
To think about someone's suggestion.
Contexte culturel
Finns value 'asiallisuus' (professionalism). Saying you'll take a suggestion into account is a serious promise to actually think about it. In flat hierarchies, this phrase is used by managers to show they aren't dictators, even if they don't use the idea. In international relations, Finnish diplomats use this to remain neutral while showing engagement.
The 'N' Rule
If you are definitely going to do it, use 'ehdotuksen'. If you are just thinking about it generally, use 'ehdotusta'.
Don't over-use
If you say this too much without taking action, people will think you are just being dismissive.
