常用应急场景

范例一：Impressive presentation

Hi, Monica, congratulations! Your presentation at the meeting was very successful and everyone was impressed by your speech. And it was so persuasive and I bet our clients will be convinced to invest their money in this project. You really made a big contribution to our company.

Thank you, I just tried my best. I am very happy to know you like it.

You must have been prepared for a long time. Some statistics in this presentation are not easy to find, right?

Well, yes. Several colleagues from different departments helped me with that. They are very supportive. I consulted an economic expert last week. He was very kind to give valuable suggestions.

Now, the effort pays off. You have accomplished something.

Come on, don’t flatter me anymore. I took the job because I love being challenged. But I can’t get this turned around without the support from you people.

范例二：Make a change at work

Here is the document you asked for this morning.

Oh, you are so efficient. I thought you might give it to me tomorrow. Thanks.

You’re welcome. You know, these days I have been reflecting on my biggest weakness procrastination. The more I think about it, the more I hate myself for being so disorganized. I decided to change the situation as soon as possible. Otherwise I will be more regretful later.

This is encouraging news, good for you! What is your solution, then?

The most useful method is to make plans and set priorities. It helps me to manage time well and get the most important things done at the first place.

Sounds not bad! Better performance isn’t just about doing a lot more. It is about focusing on the right things to do.
