Lewis的商業英語筆記

因應疫情，線上會議的頻率越來越高，如何讓自己在會議中適宜地表現專業能力，是越來越多人關心的議題。 這次 Lewis 特地邀請目前在美國西雅圖工作的 Wayne，分享他豐富的跨國線上會議經驗。Wayne 曾經是我的學員，在台灣成長，他更能體會不同文化之間的溝通，該留意哪些細節。 我們討論了以下六個問題： 你目前從事的工作為何？參與線上會議的頻率多高？ 你參與過的線上會議有哪些類型？（e.g., 提案/簡報…etc.) 就你個人的觀察，多數人參與線上會議時，哪些行為會降低專業形象？ 對你個人而言，線上會議最需要注意哪些細節？ 參與「跨國線上會議」，英文需要多好才算夠好？ 對於想進入外商的職場人士，在「線上會議禮儀」方面，你有什麼建議？ 這集內容是用線上會議平台錄製，完全沒有剪接，希望我們的討論，能讓各位有些收穫。 關於Lewis老師  https://campsite.bio/lewisbizenglish  Powered by Firstory Hosting

如何用英語表達自己的看法？ 大家最常想到的句子的開頭就是 I think （我認為) 其實除了 I think 之外，還有其他的說法可以使用： It seems like... （情況看起來似乎...） It seems to me (that)... （在我看來...） If you ask me, ... （如果你問我的看法，...) 例句： * It seems to me that people don’t spend enough time with your family. * It seems like it’s not a good idea to take work home on the weekends. * If you ask me, people should get more time off. * It seems to me that there’s a lot of pressure to work long hours. * If you ask me, everyone is way too busy these days. 關於Lewis老師 https://campsite.bio/lewisbizenglish Powered by Firstory Hosting

沒有出國，這真的是我長期在台灣練習發音的「原子習慣」 之一。 除了紅燈倒數，其他練習數字的替代方式有手機上的碼表倒數，手錶上的時間。 #職場英語教練 關於Lewis老師： https://campsite.bio/lewisbizenglish Powered by Firstory Hosting

1. 你的生活軌跡，會順著生活習慣的方向蜿蜒前進。 The trajectory of your life bends in the direction of your habits. 2. 保持耐心，讓你的習慣隨著時間進化。 Be patient. Let your habits evolve over time. 3. 如果你從不調整導致過去行為的根本觀念，要改變習慣就會很困難。你是有了新目標和新計劃，但是你還沒有調整好你自己。 It’s hard to change your habits if you never change the underlying beliefs that led to your past behavior. You have a new goal and a new plan, but you haven’t changed who you are. 以上文字內容，原文由書籍 #原子習慣 作者 James Clear 所著，中文由 Lewis 整理翻譯。 關於Lewis https://campsite.bio/lewisbizenglish Powered by Firstory Hosting
