F: Aren't you going to give us a training workshop next week? How are things going on your preparation for the presentation?
M: I'm having trouble narrowing down my topic for the training. I want to speak about how to improve our sales technique, but there is so much to say, it's hard to get organized.
F: Our training group won't be very large, so you will have more time to focus on more areas. We can cover a lot of ground in an hour and a half, if everyone is participating and paying attention.
M: I want to focus on some suggestions about making sales scores, and I was hoping to throw in a few role plays so that people get practise implementing the things I'm going to talk about. Do you think people will go for the role playing?
F: I think some people may be a little shy to do role playing in front of class… but if you are enthusiastic about your topic, you can help everyone to feel more at ease and willing to give it a try.
你不是打算下周給我們開個培訓(xùn)會嗎?你的陳述報告準(zhǔn)備得怎么樣了? 我很難把培訓(xùn)的題目縮小.我想講講如何提高我們的銷售技巧,可是要說的話太多,很難組織. 我們的培訓(xùn)團體不會太大,所以你有更多的時間兼顧更多的方面.如果大家都積極參與并注意聽講的話,我們可以在一個半小時的時間內(nèi)涉及很多方面. 我想重點對打推銷電話提一些建議,而且我也希望再增加一些角色扮演活動,這樣大家能把我要講的內(nèi)容實際應(yīng)用一下.你認(rèn)為大家會喜歡角色扮演嗎? 我想有些人可能會覺得在全班同學(xué)面前做角色扮演有點害羞……不過你對自己的話題很有熱情的話,你可以幫助大家放松情緒并愿意嘗試下.
