跟读练习: Finding Your Voice in the Boardroom - 通过视频学习英语口语
正在创建课程...
1
When I first joined the board, I think I was very nervous about voicing my questions
2
or concerns or opinions because I was the newest person and everyone else around the table was more senior and more experienced.
3
And so I discounted what I might want to say.
4
The time frame between joining a board and becoming a more active member that's giving back has shortened.
5
Maybe we feel like we don't belong in that room when you're getting on some of those first boards, but you do.
6
I think the surprising thing is how everybody was very welcoming and also that not everyone knows everything.
7
You're not supposed to know everything.
8
Now that I've seen how Board Evolution works and I've seen how thoughtful we are about new members that we bring in,
9
I see that it's a very intentional process to pick people from different backgrounds, from different career paths, from different areas of expertise.
10
The companies that are looking for you are going to look for the skill sets
11
that you bring and it doesn't mean that you need to know everything.
12
It means you need to know what you know and bring that to the board.
13
If you're going to be on a board, we need your voice.
14
We need you to be active.
15
And so when I catch people sitting back, I try to catch that moment and try to pivot it as quickly as possible
16
so that the board can benefit and the organization can benefit.
17
You don't speak up and contribute your voice.
18
You're really depriving the whole company and the whole board of your contributions.
19
I would recommend new board members do is to be thoughtful, obviously be good listeners, but also be comfortable speaking up and asking questions
20
so that you can be an active participant and contributor from day one.

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
