对于管理人员来讲,鼓舞员工士气十分重要。一起来看一下下面的对话中,可以学到些什么吧。
Angela: Sara, this is our new sales quota for the month.
Sara: You can’t be serious. We can’t make that many sales. You know we’ve been facing incredibly stiff competition recently.
Angela: Sara, true brilliance is finding ways to reach difficult goals.
Sara: How about impossible goals?
Angela: The greater the goal, the greater the reward – not to mention your bonus.
Sara: Surely I know this, but how can we increase our sales by that much?
Angela: Well, let’s think outside the box. What can we offer that on one could refuse?
Sara: well, it’s back-to-school time. We could…we could undercut our competition, start selling in other regions, hire another sales rep firm…
Angela: Now you’re on to something. Now get out there and make it happen.
Sara: (Determined) Perhaps I can find a way. Yes, I am going to move mountains.
Notes:
sales quota:销售指标
stiff competition:激烈的竞争
true brilliance:真正的聪明人
think outside the box:跳出固有思维模式
on to something:进入状况
move mountains:字面意思看起来,似乎让我们想起了“愚公移山”的故事。其实它的引申意思就是,竭尽全力,创造奇迹。
ALWAYS REMEMBER
请牢记
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone and it takes an hour to like someone and a day to love some one but it takes lifetime to forget some one.
毁掉一个人只需要一分钟,喜欢一个人需要一个小时,爱上一个人需要一天,而忘记一个人却需要一辈子。
You meet some people in your life who change you for the better, REMEMBER them kindly. And as for FRIENDS just be LOYAL -nothing more nothing less.
你的一生中会遇到一些人,他们令你的生活更美好,心怀感激地记住他们。至于对待朋友,要忠诚 - 不用多也不要少。
Its true that we don't know what we've got until we loose it but it is also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
的确,我们常常直到失去才知道自己拥有过什么;但是,也只有直到它出现,我们才知道一直以来缺少的是什么。
When one door of happiness closes, another opens but often we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one, which opens to us.
当一扇快乐的门关上了,另一扇就会打开;但是我们常常死盯着那扇已经关上的门,而忽视了那扇对我们敞开的门。
Never say GOODBYE when u still want to TRY, Never give up when u still fell u can take it, never say you don't LOVE that person anymore when you can't let go.
只要还想尝试,就永远不要说再会;只要觉得还能做到,就永远不要放弃;只要还是放不开手,就永远不要说已经不再爱那个人。
Live and Learn
If you’re not sure what title to use with an American’s name, just ask. If you’re embarrassed about asking and want to be polite, you can always use Sir for a man and Madam for a woman. In any case, many Americans are happy to use first names quite quickly after meeting someone for the first time. For example, Americans who are well past middle age will say – even to young people – Just call me (Nancy/Bill).
当你不确定该如何称呼一个美国人时,不妨直接请教。如果你想避免询问的尴尬,并且想要表现得礼貌一点,你完全可以用Sir或Madam来称呼对方。在任何场合,美国人都很喜欢对初次谋面的人直呼其名。就连已过中年的人也会大方地对青年晚辈说:“叫我(Nancy/Bill)好了。”
