ビジネスで成功するためには、どんな学位が役立つのでしょうか。カナダのビジネスマンで、テレビ番組の司会者の Robert Herjavecは、一般教養が仕事上でとても重要な役割をしていると言っています。このビデオレッスンで、マーケティング分野の表現や、金融界のことわざを学びましょう。
A “used car salesman” is what some salespeople are called, especially those who are sleazy and dishonest. This reputation seems to be because of how some of those salespeople sometimes lie or give half-truths about a used car’s faults. Of course, not all used car salespeople are like that but the stereotype still exists.
When Robert talks about “the Sharks”, he’s referring to the people who star in the TV show Shark Tank. He is part of the TV show, together with other famous entrepreneurs, such as Mark Cuban, Lori Greiner, Barbara Corcoran, Daymond John and Kevin O’Leary (aka Mr. Wonderful. We have some video lessons about him too!). In this TV show, beginner entrepreneurs present their business ideas to the “Sharks”, who analyze it and choose if they want to invest in them. Because the Sharks are highly successful and fierce when it comes to achieving their goals, facing them like that can be as scary as being put in waters with sharks!
