  【参考范例】

  A: The product of our company becomes the best seller in Europe. And the board is considering establishing trade relations with China and expanding into the Japanese market. Under this circumstance, we will need more marketing staff to give presentations. That is why we are going to have a discussion about how to plan for training for successful business presentations.

  B: We have to draw up a tentative plan for business presentation.

  C: Yeah, it is a wise choice to consider every possibility and prepare for it. Later on, although minor alternations can be made, we can avoid lots of trouble.

  A: I recommend that we can inquire about possibilities of hiring some professional organization for the training. We can rely on interest reference to figure out how they proceed with the training and decide which one can be authorized to work for us. B, anything do you want to bring up for discussion?

  B: I agree with this method. As to whom we should invite to give the training, I think college professors are our best choice. They have both working experience and academic background.

  C: But I have some different views here. If I were you, I would not pursue that. Although the distinguished professors have stunning academic background and carry glorious titles, and their insights may receive great reputation, you have to admit that most of them lack of real time practice.

  A: Personally, I think they can help us in the long run, but since it is an urgent call, I am apt to choose a professional business presentation training group.

  B: Ok. You convinced me. But I’d like to say that the evaluation is also an essential part of the plan. I mean how could we know the staff really benefit from the training or not?

  C: Since the staff from the marketing department do business presentations quite often, I think we can refer to their comment on the training. If they speak highly of the trainer and give us a positive feedback, then it means a lot.
