This course is intended primarily for non-native speakers of English who are starting to work internationally particularly with native speakers of English. It is also aimed at professionals who have recently moved into international roles but are struggling to perform as successfully as they have always done in their own culture and language.
It is a business language and intercultural awareness course combined. It covers not only the actual communication skills needed inside the international meeting but also the key interpersonal skills required around the meeting to introduce yourself and build rapport with new colleagues from other countries.
Each of the lectures is followed by a set of questions which check the topics explored in the videos but also help to explore some of them in more depth.
The author and instructor has been advising and training professionals working on an international level for quite a number of years mostly in western Europe and the lessons are based on his own experience and feedback from colleagues and clients.
The content aims to prepare you to be successful both as the leader and the participant of a meeting covering all of the most vulnerable issues of communication that may arise when teams of professionals from different cultures sit around the conference table with a common task.
Who this course is for:
- If you as a business person have never lived/worked in an English-speaking country and therefore feel a little insecure and less assertive at your international meetings, this mini-course is designed to help you. It goes from intercultural and linguistic problems professionals typically encounter all the way through to getting your say at the conference table and interrupting and disagreeing politely. The course is a combination of business-English skills and crucially important cultural knowledge. While the course focuses mostly on the language and communication culture of Britain/Ireland, it aims to enable professionals to communicate more successfully in business on a global level. The trainer for this course has been coaching senior managers in global companies for the past twenty years.
