Hello! Welcome to Michael's Better Business English!

你好! 歡迎來到邁克爾更好的商務英語!

This month, we're looking at how to speak logically.

本月我們學習怎樣使談吐條理分明。

This is a very important skill in business communication...

這是一個非常重要的商務溝通技能…

...and one many Japanese business people find difficult.

…也是許多日本商務人士認為很困難的一項技能。

The reason is often when Japanese business people are explaining their ideas, …

原因在于，通常情況下，當日本人在解釋他們的觀點時…

…they lack a logical structure.

…他們缺乏邏輯結構。

This structure gives some organization…

該結構使得一些組織…

...to make the ideas logical, easy to understand, and sound effective.

…有邏輯的表達觀點，易于理解并且印象深刻。

Now, there are many possible structures you could use to explain your ideas logically.

現(xiàn)在，有許多邏輯結構可以用來有邏輯地表達你的觀點。

One that I'd recommend especially if you're, say, describing a project,...

我建議的一個結構，尤其是如果你在說明、描述一個項目…

...explaining something, or recommending a strategy is the SOAR statement.

This is a very simple but effective logical structure.

SOAR stands for situation, objective, actions, and result.

Situation, any useful background information.

Objective, the goal, the target of what you're talking about.

Actions, this could be an action plan or the actions you are taking to achieve your target.

And then finally, result.

What you expect to get at the end of this project or strategy, or whatever.

So, I normally recommend to my students, remember SOAR in business meetings or discussions,...

...or when somebody asks you to describe or explain something clearly.

This is an easy technique to help you speak logically.

Thank you and good luck!
