商務社交:談工作

字號:

一般來說,公司的高層領(lǐng)導由于事務繁忙,與中層主管或員工交流的機會很少,而且談話的時間不長。因此,在與領(lǐng)導談工作時,要盡管言簡意賅,盡可能為他節(jié)省時間,同時還要把息的觀點說明白。
    A: Jane, the meeting is scheduled from 2:00 this afternoon. Have you made the necessary arrangements?
    簡,我們計劃在下午兩點鐘開會,你都安排好了嗎?
    B: Yes, Mr. Smith. We'll use the conference room on the second floor for the meeting.
    安排好了,史密斯先生。我們將使用二樓的會議室開會。
    A: That's right. The meeting is very important. Where shall the guests be received before the meeting begins?
    很好,這個會議很重要。開會前我們在哪里接待來賓?
    B: In the dining room. It's spacious there.

    A: We'll have several foreign guests to attend the meeting.
    我們還會有幾位外賓來參加會議。
    B: I've arranged for an interpreter to be present. But it is said these foreigners could speak English.
    我已經(jīng)安排了一位口譯員,不過我聽說這些外賓都會講英語。
    A: Really? I'll also try to speak slowly. How would you arrange the guests' seats, Jane?
    是嗎?不過,我還是會講慢一點,你怎么安排來賓就座呢,簡?

    我們已經(jīng)準備了姓名卡片放在會議桌上,讓來賓按此就座。您希望在什么時候供應點心,史密斯先生?
    A: Well, after my report, there'll be an interval for rest and refreshments.
    哦,就在我做完報告后的休息時間供應點心吧。
    B: All right, I see.
