Reappearance Dialogs
Give It a Whirl
A: What can I do for you, Mr. Sun?
B: I want to add something to the agenda.
A: I cant do that without the general managers approval.
B: But its really important. You can see that, cant you? I want to be sure it gets the attention it needs and the information I gave you is delivered to all the members with the meeting package.
A: I agree its a relevant issue, but its not my call.
B: OK. Ill talk it with Mr. Lee.
Show Ones Capabilities
A: Do you think we will spend more than twenty minutes in the opening?
I think it should be pretty simple.
B: It shouldnt take too long, but there will be a lot of seniors at the meeting. In the opening exercises it is protocol to spend a little time to recognize them. I reckon it should take about half an hour before we can even get to the minutes.
A: Welt, at least the minutes shouldnt take too long to review. There shouldnt be a lot of active business left over from last meeting.
B: True. After review and acceptance of the minutes, we have several committee reports. Old business wont take up too much time, but sometimes the committee delegates can be a little verbose.
A: We can set a five minute report time with a three minute question and answer afterwards.
B: Thats no good. Well loose control of the meeting if we open it up to questions too early.
A: True. Well, impose an eight minute limit on the committee reports then, well save Q and A until right before closed session.
B: Sounds good.
情景再现
小试牛刀增加议题
A:需要我帮什么忙吗,孙先生?
B:我想在会议上再增加一些议题。
A:没有总经理的同意我不能这么做。
B:但是你应该也看得出这很重要吧?我希望这个议题务必得到适当的关注,我今天给你的东西也要放在会议的文件袋中,发给所有的与会人员。
A:我同意那很重要,但那不是由我做主。
B:好吧,我去和李先生谈。
大展身手确定会议议程
A:你认为我们开幕式发言需要20多分钟吗?我认为应该非常简短。
B:是不应该花太长时间,但是会上有很多高层人士出席。开幕式上,从礼节上讲需要花点儿时间让大家认识一下他们。我计算过应该需要半个小时左右才能进入会议记录环节。
A:那好吧,至少不要花太多时间评议会议记录。上次会议之后应该没有留下太多的后续工作。
B:是这样。在评议和接受会议记录之后,我们还有几份委员会的报告要看。遗留问题不会占太多时间,但有时委员会代表会很哕嗦。
A:我们可以设定报告时间为5分钟,随后是3分钟的问答时间。
B:这样不好。如果我们会上过早让大家提问,我们会失控的。
A:确实如此。那我们给委员会报告限定8分钟,这样把问答时间拖到会议结束之前。
B:这样还不错。
