БЭП 42 – Английский для встреч: Открытие встречи
This is the first in a two-part intermediate Урок делового английского подкаста on opening and managing meetings. В этом эпизоде, we’ll look at how to open a meeting. In the second part (БЭП 43) we’ll look at language you can use to manage the discussion.
The listening takes place in the Singapore offices of Daneline, an international shipping company. Мартин, the GM, is chairing a meeting with Sandra, David and Sam to discuss a budget shortfall. Shortfall means their budget has fallen short of expectations. Другими словами, they don’t have enough money, so they need to make some cuts. To chair a meeting is to lead the meeting. We can say that Martin is the chairperson. So in these two episodes on opening and managing meetings, you’ll be learning language for chairing meetings.
