第2章 BegintheMeeting会议开始

The phrase ‘call to order’ comes directly from Robert s Rules of Order. It is always used when writing the minutes, and often spoken by the Chair to start the meeting. Problems rarely arise when a meeting starts late; it is only when a meeting starts early that problems may occur. If a contentious item is discussed during a meeting that began before schedule, complaints may arise from those who felt the start time contributed to the opening of the problems. For this reason, the exact start time is noted in the minutes. Even if all participants are present, the meeting will not start early.

“会议开始”这个短语直接取自《罗伯特议事法则》,在会议记录中常会用到,主席会说这句话来开始会议。若会议比预定时间晚,通常还不会有什么大问题,但若提早开始可能就会出意外了。因为提早开会时,如果产生了具有争议性的议题,可能会有人抱怨是会议的提早,导致意外出现。因此,会议行程中包括准确的会议开始时间,即使所有人都到齐了,也不要提早开会。
