演讲稿

The only problem was, the meeting occurred at the same time as my daughter's first big trip away from home. It was a big moment for her and her friends—to go on a multiple day trip—and my daughter needed me to be there.
唯一的问题是，这次会见的时间正好是我女儿第一次离家去旅行，这对她和她的朋友们很重要，她希望参加几天的旅行，更需要我和她在一起。
What should I do. There was never a doubt in my mind. The president wouldn't know if I was there or not. But my daughter would. So I went to the bus with her and I never looked back. It didn't affect Avon that I didn't go to the White House. But I also tell women that it is even all right if your job does sometimes come second to your personal priorities. Sometimes the job is more important.. But sometimes your family has to be more important.
我怎么办？其实我心里从来没有犹豫。总统并不知道我是否在场，但我女儿需要我的陪伴。所以我义无反顾地和她一起去了车站。不去白宫不会影响雅芳。但我也要告诉女性朋友，有时候你的工作排在你的私人事情之后是完全可以的。有时候，工作更重要，但有时候，你的家庭更重要。
There are two final qualities of distinguished leadership that I want to share with you today. These may be the most important qualities of all and how lucky we are that both are a fundamental part of our Chinese culture—something we all learn from our parents virtually from the day we are born.
我今天和你们分享的最后两点优秀领导力的特质可能是所有特质中最重要的，而我们如此幸运，因为这两点都是我们中华民族文化的根基，是我们几乎从出生那天起就开始向父母学习的。
First is Perseverance. I'm talking about simple hard work and a commitment to stay the course even when times are tough. In today's fast-pace business environment, unexpected challenges come at you from all directions, with no end in sight. Sometimes I read articles about myself and my career path and it makes it sound so easy.
第一是坚持。我所谈的是最基本的努力工作和面临困境时也能如此的信念。在如今快节奏的商业环境下，意料之外的挑战来自四面八方，看不到劲头。有时候我读一些关于我和我职业生涯的文章，看上去好像一切都很容易。

名人简介
根据最新公告，钟彬娴卸任董事长后，将担任雅芳董事会高级顾问。接任者哈桑现年66岁，系美国华平投资集团董事总经理、合伙人。
此前的两年时间里，在旷日持久的“贿赂门”事件影响下，包括雅芳副董事长查尔斯·克兰布、中国区总裁高寿康（S.K. Kao）在内的多位高管相继离职。

雅芳业绩也急剧下滑。以今年第二季度为例，雅芳当季净利润下滑70%至6160万美元（1美元约合6.3元人民币）。
雅芳在中国也不复往日风光。有报道称，作为最先拿到中国直销牌照的直销巨头，雅芳去年在华销售额仅为20亿元，跌至行业第六，与第一名安利的260亿元销售额相距甚远。
《华尔街日报》今年8月的报道称，眼下，雅芳已与美国司法部、美国证券交易委员会展开谈判，希望就针对该公司涉嫌贿赂海外官员的调查达成和解，结束这项已进入第五个年头、耗费了雅芳大量精力和财力的调查。
