當你成為會議焦點時，不要驚慌

在會議上被當成是焦點明星，有時對你是一個不受歡迎的驚喜。但是如果你準備發言並說一些有用的話，你可以把它變成展示你的專業知識的機會。

在下次會議之前，看一下議程，寫一些關於你的問題和可能會對你提出的問題的筆記。

如果你在會議中被邀請，緩慢地地、自信地說，並用一些上下文介紹你的評論，以便同事們知道你的方向。當然，如果有人問你一個讓你措手不及的問題，不要害怕回答說你不知道的答案。

對這些時刻做一些簡單的回答：“我沒現在有這些資訊，但下午1點之前我會回答你的。”最後總是問：“我回答你的問題了嗎？”

When You’re Put on the Spot in a Meeting, Don’t Panic

Being put on the spot during a meeting can be an unwelcome surprise. But if you’re prepared to speak up and say something useful, you can turn it into an opportunity to show your expertise.

Before your next meeting, look through the agenda and write some notes about questions you have and any points you might raise.

If you’re called on in the meeting, speak slowly and confidently, and introduce your comments with some context so that colleagues know where you are headed. Of course, if someone asks you a question that catches you off guard, don’t be afraid to say you don’t know the answer.

Practice some simple responses for these moments: “I don’t have that information, but I will get it to you by 1 PM.” And always end by asking, “Did I answer your question?”
