You have been asked to put forward some suggestions for improving the situation.Discuss and decide together: why poor time management can become a major problem in company. what procedures could be adopted to ensure that time is managed effectively.参考答案：Zheng: Hi, Ms. Wen. As you know, our company is kind of out of control these days. Dont you think so?Wen: Yeah. Everything seems to be in disorder here in our company. And that obviously has a lot to do with poor time management.Zheng: You mean poor time management has caused all these problems? Why?Wen: When a company does not have a well-planned time-schedule, they usually do not allocate blocks of time to specified tasks. They do not have a definite idea of when they should complete a certain task.Zheng: I think they often neglect the ordering of priorities. I mean certain tasks need priority. But in the company every task is treated on an equal basis, even if it is a very urgent task.Wen: Thats the point. So time should be planned according to the importance of the tasks we need to deal with.Zheng: So what do you think we can do so that time is managed effectively here in our company?Wen: You mean what procedures we can adopt?Zheng: Sure. Thats what our boss is asking us to do. Right?Wen: Right. I think weve got a lot to do. First, we should make all the staff members realize how important effective time management is to our company.Zheng: Yes, I think we can give them instruction in time management, especially those in supervisory positions.Wen: Great. Perhaps we can run a few training programs for them. If there is a need, we may invite some experts from outside to help us.Zheng: Another thing we can do is to make all the managers, or even every staff member, come up with a job description of their own. In this way, they can be pretty sure about what they are responsible for and what they are not.Wen: Yes, thats a good idea. And I think the top managers of our company should come up with a set of rules as to what kind of jobs should be given priority to. In this way, we can make sure that important tasks are dealt with first.Zheng: Good idea. So to sum up, our company should run a few training programmes, and every staff member should write a job description of their own.Wen: And rules should be made about what kind of job should be given priority to.3. 常用句型 开始一个论题Lets start withShall we begin with 结束一个论题Right，I think that covers the first item Shall we leave the item?Lets move on to the next itemNow，we come to the question of 限定讨论话题Can we just deal with?
