向老闆建議英語情景對話

職場英語情景對話:向老闆建議

MR. RAMIREZ: Come in, Arnold. Have a seat.

ARNOLD: Good morning.

MR. RAMIREZ: Would you like something to drink?

ARNOLD: No, thank you. I just had two cups of coffee at my desk.

MR. RAMIREZ: So, you're a serious coffee drinker.

ARNOLD: Yes, it keeps me going. Sometimes I think I'm addicted.

MR. RAMIREZ: Well, coffee isn't such a bad thing.

Everyone has to have something.

For me, it's cigars. Are you a cigar smoker?

ARNOLD: No, I've tried them. But I’m not really a smoker.

MR. RAMIREZ: Well, what would you like to talk to me about?

ARNOLD: I wanted to set up this meeting with you to discuss a little proposal.

MR. RAMIREZ: I'm glad when people have new ideas around here. Tell me about it.

ARNOLD: It is about the staff meetings.

You know how we have a staff meeting every Tuesday.

MR. RAMIREZ: Yes.

ARNOLD: Well, I have been thinking about it.

And I believe we could do things more efficiently here.

MR. RAMIREZ: What do you suggest?

ARNOLD: The way it is now, the staff from all four branches get together once a week.

We meet for one hour. But I think a lot of time is wasted in transportation.

MR. RAMIREZ: You mean because people have to go across town to get here.

ARNOLD: Yes. Some people spend half of the morning on the road.

MR. RAMIREZ: That's true. But our staff meetings are very important, Arnold.

I don't know how we can function without them.

ARNOLD: I think they are important too.

That's why I want people to have a better attitude about them.

MR. RAMIREZ: I know a lot of people think the meetings aren't too useful.

I'm aware of that.

ARNOLD: Here's what I propose.

I think we should meet once every two weeks, but meet for ninety minutes or more.

MR. RAMIREZ: Well.

ARNOLD: I also think the meetings should be more focused.

And I would be willing to take responsibility for that.

MR. RAMIREZ: You mean you want to run the meetings?

ARNOLD: No, not really run them. But I could help organize them.

I could discuss meeting topics with you, and then prepare a schedule for each meeting.

I could then send an e-mail to all the staff to explain the coming meeting.

This way the meetings would become more focused, and people would prepare better.

MR. RAMIREZ: Hmm. But we would meet every two weeks.

ARNOLD: I really think it would work.

The meetings could be longer, and better organized.

MR. RAMIREZ: I am not against the idea, Arnold.

It may really be more efficient, as you say. I'll tell you what we can do.

Why don't we try your proposal for a month, and see how it works.

ARNOLD: Excellent. I would be happy to get started on it.

MR. RAMIREZ: I will call the managers.

Then tomorrow I'll tell you when we can schedule our first meeting in this “new style.”

侖米先生:進來,阿諾。請坐。

阿諾:早安。

侖米先生:你要喝點什麼嗎?

阿諾:不了,謝謝你。我才喝了兩杯咖啡。

侖米先生:所以,你是一個嚴重的咖啡愛好者。

阿諾:是的,它讓我持續前進。有時候我認爲我有點上癮。

侖米先生:嗯,咖啡也不是一個壞事情。

每個人都要有所喜好。

像我,就是雪茄。你抽雪茄嗎?

阿諾:不,我嘗試過。但我並不是一個吸菸愛好者。

侖米先生:嗯,你想跟我說些什麼呢?

阿諾:我想借着這個會談跟你討論一個提案。

侖米先生:我很高興這裏能有人提些新計劃,告訴我是什麼。

阿諾:是有關公司重要幹部的會議

你知道我們每個星期二的幹部會議。

侖米先生:是的。

阿諾:嗯,我一直在想。

我相信我們可以做得更有效率些。

侖米先生:那你的建議是?

阿諾:現在的方法是,四個分公司的幹部每一週都會來這裏一次。

我們開會一小時,但我認爲絕大部份的時間都浪費在交通上。

侖米先生:你的意思是因爲大家都要橫越整個城市到這兒。

阿諾:是的,有些人花了一個早上在路程上。

侖米先生:沒有錯。但我們幹部的會議是很重要的,阿諾。

我不知道沒有他們我們如何能運作。

阿諾:我也認爲他們很重要。

那就是爲什麼我要大家對會談能有更好的態度。

侖米先生:我知道有一些人認爲會談並沒有太大的用處。

我知道這個的。

阿諾:這是我的建議。

我認爲我們應該每兩個星期開一次會,但一次開九十分鐘或是加長。

侖米先生:這個。

阿諾:我同時也認爲議題應更明確。

我願意對這件事負責。

侖米先生:你的意思是你要主持會議?

阿諾:不,並不是要主持會議。但我可以幫忙籌組。

我可以跟你討論議題,然後準備每次會議的時程表。

我可以寄電子郵件給所有的幹部解說下個會議。

這樣的話會議就能更明確,大家也能準備得更充分。

侖米先生:嗯,但我們會每兩個星期開一次會。

阿諾:我真的認爲這是可行的。

會議時間可以加長,而且更有組織。

侖米先生:我並不是反對這個主意,阿諾。

這或許會更有效率,就像你說的。我告訴你我們能怎麼做。

我們何不試試你的提案一個月,我們再來看成效。

阿諾:太好了,我已經迫不及待了。

侖米先生:我會通知所有的經理。

然後明天我會告訴你何時我們可以規劃第一次的會議使用這個“新作風”。
