English is the international language of business, and today AI can already draft a correct email, translate, and fix grammar. But there is one thing AI cannot do: truly understand the person across the table, their cultural background, what is left unsaid, and the right way to communicate with them.
This workshop is especially suited for professionals whose first language is not English, who work in global, multicultural environments.
In this workshop we combine command of business English with cultural sensitivity, across a range of situations:
- In emails and professional correspondence.
- In business conversations and meetings.
- Even in job interviews.
We will work on:
- Understanding the other side: how to read cultural cues, tone and intentions beyond the words.
- When to soften and when to be direct, depending on the other side’s culture.
- Common mistakes of English-as-a-second-language speakers, and how to overcome them.
- Using AI tools wisely, adding the cultural and human layer they miss.
