英語演講短文——祝賀升遷

1.爲對上司的祝賀

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.爲對同事的升遷

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“敏感的”演說。無論上司也好同事也罷，我們對於別人的晉升難免總會有幾分“嫉妒”（ENVY）的心情。當然這種心情一旦暴露出來，演說就垮了。諸如“這次的晉升對您來說實至名歸”（a promotion you richly deserve)這類讚美之辭乃屬必要。

NOTES：

directorship ，領導

section director , 課長

colleague , 同事

come drop by, 過來玩

needless to say 不用說
