Training in English
New
Do you attend meetings, workshops and presentations in English, but feel insecure in your communication style and behavior? How can you achieve your meeting objectives in a foreign language?
Meetings in English are part of everyday work life for many people, whether in person or online. Linguistic confidence, clear and understandable communication style and conveying competence are crucial for active participation in meetings - not just for the moderator and host.
