Speaker Three
女:嗯,我现在知道要严肃对待沟通技巧的重要性这个问题了……
I used to think it was all rather woolly, but when you've seen the damage misunderstandings can do...
过去我觉得整件事情都比较模糊,但当你亲眼看到误解能够给公司造成多大损失时……
I suppose the board was a grouping of people with such strong backgrounds individually that each of them expected to be top dog, and that it was perhaps inevitable that they'd clash over what direction the company should go in.
我想着,董事会都是一群各个都有着强大的背景,都能够成为佼佼者的人,所以,他们在公司的发展方向上会起冲突可能也是在所难免的。
Anyhow, it looked very grim for a while but, in the end, two of them took the pretty sizeable payoffs they were offered and moved on. From our point of view, at least it saved us from the prospect of the group being split up and the shares sold off.
不管怎样,形势一度十分危急,最后,其中两位董事拿着颇为丰厚的酬劳离开公司另谋高就了。
