Why languages matter to companies

International collaborations Successfully handling global client requests, negotiations and cross-cultural customer service requires your workforce to be confident English speakers.

Internal training programs Language training courses often become part of a company’s training program for high achievers.

Mergers and acquisitions Having English as the common corporate language will assist the successful integration of two corporate cultures.

Talent mobility Enhanced language skills within the workforce will enable your organization to remain agile and deploy human capital in the most effective way.

Improved competitiveness Managers need to maintain excellent language skills to ensure that no business opportunities are lost in translation in an increasingly globalized environment.

Staff retention Investment in such a valuable and transferable skillset encourages employee loyalty, drives motivation and opens up new avenues for promotion and personal growth.
