一般來說，公司的高層領(lǐng)導(dǎo)由于事務(wù)繁忙，與中層主管或員工交流的機(jī)會(huì)很少，而且談話的時(shí)間不長。因此，在與領(lǐng)導(dǎo)談工作時(shí)，要盡管言簡意賅，盡可能為他節(jié)省時(shí)間，同時(shí)還要把息的觀點(diǎn)說明白。

A: Jane, the meeting is scheduled from 2:00 this afternoon. Have you made the necessary arrangements?

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(huì)議室開會(huì)。

A: That's right. The meeting is very important. Where shall the guests be received before the meeting begins?
很好，這個(gè)會(huì)議很重要。開會(huì)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.

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(huì)講慢一點(diǎn)，你怎么安排來賓就座呢，簡？

B: We've prepared name cards to be put on the conference table for guests to sit by. What time would you like refreshments served, Mr. Smith?
我們已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備了姓名卡片放在會(huì)議桌上，讓來賓按此就座。您希望在什么時(shí)候供應(yīng)點(diǎn)心，史密斯先生？

A: Well, after my report, there'll be an interval for rest and refreshments.
