Chào mừng bạn quay trở lại với Business English Pod cho bài học hôm nay về giao tiếp xã hội at an office party.
Office parties can be fun, but have you ever stood there with a colleague and felt like you don’t know what to say? Maybe you’ve got a great working relationship, but outside the office it feels like a different game? Trong thực tế, good working relationships are supported by good personal relationships. The more we know our co-workers, the better our work can be. And the office party can be a great chance to get to know them better and build that relationship.
Vì thế, how do we do that? What are some techniques for socializing at office parties? Trong bài học hôm nay, we’ll look at paying, or giving, someone a compliment, declining a drink, and gossiping. We’ll also learn how to change the topic and introduce two people who haven’t met before.
