1.為對(duì)上司的祝賀
Congratulations, Mr. Hoffman, on your promotion to the managing director of the personnel department. Under your directorship, I am sure the department will grow even stronger and more closely united.
Also, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being our section director. Needless to say, You have always been a great boss, and I'm sure you will make even a greater director in the personnel department.
2.為對(duì)同事的升遷
I want to say congratulations to you, Jim, for your promotion to sales manager. You have been a great colleague as well as a good friend. And I am proud of you.
Good luck, Jim, and come drop by our office any time.
這是相當(dāng)“敏感的”演說。無論上司也好同事也罷,我們對(duì)于別人的晉升難免總會(huì)有幾分“嫉妒”(ENVY)的心情。當(dāng)然這種心情一旦暴露出來,演說就垮了。諸如“這次的晉升對(duì)您來說實(shí)至名歸”(a promotion you richly deserve)這類贊美之辭乃屬必要。
NOTES:
