أفضل الممارسات البيئية 42 – اللغة الإنجليزية للاجتماعات: افتتاح اجتماع
This is the first in a two-part intermediate درس بودكاست للغة الإنجليزية للأعمال on opening and managing meetings. في هذه الحلقة, we’ll look at how to open a meeting. In the second part (أفضل الممارسات البيئية 43) we’ll look at language you can use to manage the discussion.
The listening takes place in the Singapore offices of Daneline, an international shipping company. مارتن, the GM, is chairing a meeting with Sandra, David and Sam to discuss a budget shortfall. Shortfall means their budget has fallen short of expectations. بعبارات أخرى, they don’t have enough money, so they need to make some cuts. To chair a meeting is to lead the meeting. We can say that Martin is the chairperson. So in these two episodes on opening and managing meetings, you’ll be learning language for chairing meetings.
