Welcome to ESLPod.com's "Business Meetings" course: lesson nine.
I'm your host, Dr. Jeff McQuillan, coming to you from the Center for Educational Development in beautiful Los Angeles, California.
In the eighth lesson of "Business Meetings," we learned business vocabulary for taking questions at formal and informal business meetings.
Now, in this ninth lesson, we're going to learn how to end a topic and plan for the future at business meetings.
Let's listen to Shawn speak at the formal meeting.
Unfortunately, our time together is drawing to a close and we won't be able to take any more questions today.
I have been very favorably impressed by today's discussion, but a great deal of work remains to be done.
I propose that we form two committees to focus on the major outstanding issues.
Ms. Graff, I would like you to head the first committee, which is charged with developing a new marketing campaign that will help us reach our target market.
Mr. Hanson, you will be the chairperson of the second committee, which will begin making the proposed product changes ASAP.
I would also like to establish a regular meeting schedule so that we can convene and have the committees report back to the larger group about their progress.
If this time slot is convenient for everyone, I propose that we meet at this time every Tuesday for the next two months.
At that point, we can reevaluate our situation and determine whether we would like to continue with the meetings.
