Hi Beth. How are you today?

0:27

I'm good, thank you.

0:28

I am very busy.

0:29

I have a lot of meetings.

0:31

How are you?

0:32

I'm OK, thank you, Beth,

0:34

I don't have many meetings today.

0:36

But today we are talking about meetings – in particular work meetings,

0:41

where you talk to colleagues and discuss ideas or make decisions.

0:46

That's right. OK.

0:47

Shall we get started?

0:49

Yes. So, Beth, you have a lot of meetings today.

0:52

Do you generally have a lot of meetings at work?

0:57

It really depends on what I'm working on.

1:02

So, if I have a project where I need to meet a lot of people,

1:08

then I might have quite a few meetings.

1:11

And that's why I'm busy now.
