歡迎回到商務英語播客，這是我們課程的第二部分 演講英語 and handling a question and answer session at the end of a presentation.
Presentations can be stressful. Speaking in front of the public, or even just your colleagues, makes even confident people nervous. And there’s one part of a presentation in particular that might dial up the nerves: the questions people ask at the end of your presentation.
這 問&一個 requires you to think on your feet. Some of the questions you get might be really difficult. 由於這個原因, it may be important to check that your answers are sufficient for the question-asker. 與此同時, the questions might not even be relevant! So you’ll need a strategy for that situation as well.
Sometimes a person will ask a question that you think you’re not the best person to answer. 在這種情況下, you can figure out who to redirect the question to. And if this entire Q&A situation is stressful, well at least you have some control. You can control the timing, instead of letting it go on forever.
在本課中, we’ll continue listening to a Q&A in a meeting at a steel company. 缺口, a sales director, has just given a presentation. He and his boss Max are dealing with questions from Bryan and Cindy.
