BEP 42C – 英語會議: 開始開會
歡迎回到商務英語播客今天的課程，了解如何開始 用英語開會.
Many jobs require us to spend a lot of time in meetings. Sometimes we might think there are too many meetings. 部分地, we might feel this way because a lot of meetings aren’t run very well or facilitated effectively.
There’s a good chance that you will have to run meetings some day, if you don’t already. You have a chance to make sure those meetings are effective by running the meeting well. 幸好, running a meeting involves skills that you can learn.
Today we’ll focus on starting a meeting, which begins with getting people’s attention and acknowledging them. 下一個, you might clearly state the purpose or goals of the meeting before reviewing the agenda with everyone. Then you may invite someone to begin speaking about the first item on the agenda.
