  七、召開會議(組織和主持會議)

  如果你覺得團(tuán)隊(duì)中有需要討論的事情,你可以“召集會議”,也可以由其他同事或上級“召集會議”。

  如果有人希望“發(fā)言”(主持會議的一部分)或提供具體信息,那么不要忘記親自通知他們(如果他們不在附近,也可以通過電話通知!)他們的職責(zé),所以他們有時(shí)間準(zhǔn)備。

  SAMPLE EMAIL FOR CALLING A MEETING:

  召集會議的電子郵件示例:

  Good Afternoon Everyone,

  大家下午好,

  There will be a meeting next week Thursday (26th) at 3pm in Room 5C.

  下周星期四(26日)下午3點(diǎn)在5C室舉行會議。

  All staff in the marketing team are expected to attend, as we will be discussing our strategy for the next quarter.

  由于我們將討論下一季度的戰(zhàn)略,預(yù)計(jì)營銷團(tuán)隊(duì)的所有員工都將出席。

  We’re having this meeting earlier than usual due to the sudden surge of popularity surrounding our latest product.

  由于我們的最新產(chǎn)品突然大受歡迎,這次會議比平時(shí)提前舉行。

  Please come prepared with ideas, queries, suggestions for further promotions and any questions, as we will not have time to discuss this during peak time.

  請準(zhǔn)備好進(jìn)一步促銷的想法、問題、建議和任何問題,因?yàn)槲覀冊诟叻迤跊]有時(shí)間討論。

  Please expect the meeting to last approximately 3 hours.

  請期待會議持續(xù)約3小時(shí)。

  Yours,

  你的,

  Nadine Thomas

  納丁·托馬斯

  Marketing Supervisor

  市場主管

  八、編寫議程(準(zhǔn)備會議期間討論的日程/主題)

  會議中出現(xiàn)的一個(gè)常見問題是,它們往往會超過分配的時(shí)間。不僅忽視了其他重要工作,而且可能會給公司帶來很大的成本。

  知道如何“回到正軌”是有效會議的關(guān)鍵組成部分。與會者更可能通過提問和提供反饋(如果他們知道預(yù)期結(jié)果)來提供意見。

  如果你已經(jīng)順利通過BEC商務(wù)英語考試,那也不要懈怠啊,畢竟所有的學(xué)習(xí)都是為了有一天能夠用到它們。如果你以后從事商務(wù)相關(guān)的工作,那么還是有很大幾率會用到商務(wù)英語。這些實(shí)用性的語言希望大家好好看看,也希望大家能夠收獲自己心中所想。
