第一天到公司上班,You must be nervous.你的心情一定挺緊張。怎麼才能給上級和同事留下a favorable impression(良好印象)呢?西裝革履的你看起來很cool,但你還是沒有十分的把握。我們先來聽聽某家外企公司的新成員Peter King如何得體地處理他工作中的第一天。
Peter: Good Morning. May I introduce myself?My name's Peter King and I'm new here.
Anna: Pleased to meet you. I'm Anna White, the assistant to the Personnel Manager.Welcome to our company.
你看,初次見面好比跳華爾茲,非常簡單,就是三步曲:問候——介紹——對方回答。不過這首華爾茲在不同的場合,步伐也不相同。
在formal正式場合中, 要用:Good morning/afternoon或How do you do,同時要shaking hands“握握手”來顯示你的sincerity誠意。當然不要忘了smile一下,因為微笑是消除隔閡、溝通心靈的最好方法。
而在informal非正式場合中,比如年輕人之間或平時的聚會中,我們就可以relax,放鬆一下,不單穿著隨便,而且只需招手致意,問候語用簡單的Hi, or Hello!就可以了。
另外,作為新人,應該主動與同事交往,所以要先作self introduction,除了May I introduce myself? My name's Peter King,你還可以說:Let me introduce myself. My name's Peter. 或者I'm Peter.
作完了自我介紹,Peter希望Susan能把他介紹給經理或其他人,聽聽他是怎麼說的:
Peter: Could you introduce me to the Manager?
Susan: Of course. Mr. King... Mr. White, let me introduce you to Mr. Peter King,the new clerk in your department.
White: How do you do. I'm Alex White. We're going to be working together.
Peter: How do you do. I've been looking forward to meeting you, Mr. White.
原來他用了句型 Could you introduce me to sb.? 這顯得很有禮貌。另外你還可以這樣說:
1、I haven't met your Managing Director yet. (我還沒有見到你們的總裁。)
2、I don't know anyone here. You'll have to introduce me.
(這裡的人我都不認識。您得給我作介紹。)
如果情況相反,需要你把某人介紹給其他人,下面的句子可以幫你這個忙:
1、Let me introduce you to our Managing Director.(請讓我把您介紹給我們的總裁。);
2、I'll introduce you to our Managing Director , this is Mr. Johnson, our MD.
(我會把你介紹給我們的總裁。這是約翰生先生,我們的總裁。)
最後,請問你知道在初次見面時哪句話是必不可少的嗎?對了,是:
Nice to meet you.(見到您很高興。)每當對方報上姓名時,你要記得說這句話。
為了加深對方的印象,你可以加上你對對方的讚揚:
I've heard a lot about you. (久聞大名) 。當然用
Glad to meet you. 或Pleased to meet you. 來替代Nice to meet you.也可以。
得體的介紹和問候會給對方留下美好印象,但是你不能虎頭蛇尾呀,告別也要無可挑剔。
常用的告別語有:
1、It was very nice to have met you.
2、It was nice meeting you.
3、Hope to see you again.
嗯,第一課,everything is going well. 一切進行順利。你學會了如何作自我介紹和介紹別人以及初次見面如何問候。但是你還要記住,要好好做練習呀!See you tomorrow。
