A-Trans-1,Reading A,会议关乎宝贵的时间 会议已经拖拖拉拉开了一个多小时，我们正在讨论如何提高生产效率的提案。这时，最能言善道的同事插话说需要某种制度来激励员工。每次会上，不管讨论什么问题，他都会提出同一个方案。紧接着，另一位同事长篇累牍地说明我们都不是提出这些建议的合适人选。我也没说啥有用的。最后，召集会议的女同事宣布散会，并告知下周继续开会。我们游荡回各自的办公室，盘算着怎样才能把浪费的时间补回来。这是多年前的一次会议，但类似的情景仍然随时随地在不同公司上演。,A-Trans-2,Reading A,这种会议的问题部分在于会议召集人没有明确的目标或议程，也没有布置好会前的准备工作，而是寄希望于奇迹发生，带来解决问题的方法。当然，奇迹从未发生。,A-Trans-3,Reading A,会议之所以效率不高，主要是因为没有很好地珍惜时间。召开和参加会议的人都没有将时间当做最宝贵的资源。但时间是世上最易逝的东西。忙碌的一天中你无法得到额外的一个小时来做事。尽管如此，我们还总是依稀觉得未来有大把时间，故而不珍惜当下，漫不经心地把家庭、朋友和自己的时间浪费掉。,A-Trans-4,过去，我开会时参与度不高，对要解决的问题有好想法却不说。现在，我采取更积极的态度，希望会议能更有效。我遵循以下三个简单的原则。第一，无论谁召集会议，都必须明确目的。这意味着说明会议的切实目标并将任务布置下去。第二，每个人都要仔细考虑会议成本：到底需要几人参加？要开多久？最后，会议结束后，要给会议负责人评评分。如果谁有开会效率低的记录，那么下次他就不能再担任召集人。,Reading A,A-Trans-5,Reading A,我知道会议还有其他作用。有时，在会上大家可以讨论预定方案，确保其没有致命错误并给那些有异议的人一个表达心声的机会。有些会议则有人文功能，创造机会让与会者叙叙旧、交交新朋友，并增强归属感。这些倒是能为那些冗长而明显无效的会议找到些许召集的理由。,A-Trans-6,Reading A,但是，千万不要随随便便就召集会议，然后心存幻想，期待奇迹出现。不管会议目标是什么，都要负起责任去达成目标。,B-Trans-1,Reading B,摩登技术公司 董事会会议纪要 2010 年1 月22 日 星期五 摩登技术公司（以下简称“摩登技术”）董事会（以下简称“董事会”）例行会议于2010 年1 月22 日星期五召开。本次会议采用电话会议方式。 董事会成员出席或缺席： 格雷格斯坦霍夫 主席 出席 吉姆贝克 成员 出席 杰克费希尔 成员 出席 史蒂夫霍布斯 成员 缺席 迈克尼科尔斯 成员 出席（下午两点三十分到会） 董事会以外的法律顾问和公司职员出席或缺席： 鲍威尔卡曼 摩登技术法律顾问 出席 罗布安德森 摩登技术执行董事 出席,B-Trans-2,Reading B,一、欢迎并宣布开会 董事会主席斯坦霍夫于下午两点五分宣布会议开始。 二、通过前次会议纪要 主席斯坦霍夫提议通过2009 年12 月17 日的董事会会议纪要。纪要草案已于本次会议前分发给董事会成员。霍布斯先生提议表决，贝克先生附 议。决议一致通过。 三、通过财务报告 主席斯坦霍夫请费希尔先生做财务报告，该报告已于会前分发给董事会成员。费希尔先生做了财务报告并请董事会审议通过。会议讨论后，贝克先生提议表决，尼科尔斯先生附议。决议一致通过。,B-Trans-3,Reading B,四、新事项 主席斯坦霍夫请执行董事安德森向董事会就对安妮鲁宾博士项目的支持情况进行说明。执行董事安德森就会前分发给董事会成员的材料做了说明。他请求董事会审阅并通过项目支持书草案。接着他向董事会介绍了鲁宾博士，并由鲁宾博士做补充情况说明。会议进行了细致讨论后，贝克先生提议表决，尼科尔斯先生附议。决议一致通过：董事会支持该项目，并授权执行董事安德森定稿，然后以董事会的名义向鲁宾博士寄送项目支持书。 五、休会 会议于下午三点三十九分休会。 董事会秘书 B托马斯洛斯 敬呈,W-Task 1,Task 1 Taking good notes is a key to producing good minutes.
