Culture Tips

 

Saly:  ຄວາມ​ຮູ້ດ້ານ​ວັທນະ​ທັມ​ມື້​ນີ້​ຈະ​ເພ່ັ່ງ​ເລງ​ໃສ່ ການ​ເວົ້າ​ຢ້ຳ​ ຄວາມ​ເຂົ້າ​ໃຈ​ກ່ຽວ​ກັບ​ຂໍ້ສ​ເນີ

         ອັນ​ໃດ​ອັນ​ນ່ຶງ. ​

 

When you negotiate, you have to read very carefully and listen carefully to what people have to say.

ແປ​ວ່າ​ເວລາ​ເຮົາ​ທຳ​ການ​ເຈ​ຣະຈາ ​ເຮົາ​ອ່ານ​ຄືນ​ຢ່າງ​ລະມັລະວັງ​ທ່ີ​ສຸດ​ແລະ​ຟັງ​ດ້ວຍ​ຄວາມ​ຕັ້ງ​ໃຈ​ແທ້ໆ​ ສ່ິງ່ທີ​ແຕ່ລະຄ​ົນ​ເວົ້າ​ໄປ.

   

One good way to confirm understanding is to paraphrase, or restate, what you read or hear.

ແປ​ວ່າ ວິທີ​ນ່ຶງ ທ່ີ​ໃນ​ການ​ຢ້ຳຄວາມ​ເຂົ້າ​ໃຈ​ກໍ​ຄື​ການ​ເວົ້າ​ຫຼຳຄືນ​ ຫືຼການ​ເວົ້າ​ຕ່ືມ​ອີກ​ທ່ີ​ສ່ີ​ໄດ້​ອ່ານ​ຫຼື​ໄດ້​​ຍິນ​ໄປ​ຫັ້ນຄືນ.

          

Eliz:   Welcome once again to “Culture Tips” with Gary Engleton.

          Today, Gary will talk about another aspect of negotiating.

 

Gary:   Yes, today I’m going to talk about confirming understanding of a

 proposal.

 For example, if someone wants to sell a book for thirteen dollars, you want to  make sure that they aren’t saying thirty dollars.

But that’s a very simple example.

In negotiations between corporations, there may be many pages of details.

When you negotiate, you have to read very carefully and listen carefully to what people have to say.

 

Eliz:    What could go wrong if you don’t?

 

Gary:   Well, you might reject a proposal because you misunderstand it.

           Or even worse, you might accept it by mistake.

One good way to confirm understanding is to paraphrase, or restate, what you read or hear.

 

Eliz:    Say it again in your own words.

 

Gary:  Right.

You shouldn’t respond to a proposal unless you are sure that you have understood it.

 

Eliz:    Thanks, Gary!
