Business Meetings in English
Do you participate in meetings where English is the main language? For many the answer is yes, especially in the globalized economy where meetings with foreign colleagues and business partners take place regularly.
Meetings are no different from any other business situation; we’re often, understandably of course, at a disadvantage if the language spoken is not our own.
The Meetings in English course is ideal for professionals and managers who would like to:
