Clients we work with:

The unintended consequences of global business growth

When you compete in a global economy with a workforce that has difficulty

communicating and collaborating with each other, communication

problems quickly become business problems. Internal and

external miscommunication affect innovation, speed to market, execution,

customer satisfaction, profitability and many other key measures of company

success. This conclusion is supported by a growing base of evidence,

which shows a clear relationship between effective business communication

and financial performance. We call this Enterprise Fluency™: the

communication, collaboration and operational proficiency companies must

have to drive high performance in a global economy.

English has become the de facto language of global business. Business

English is now the critical skill that fuels Enterprise

Fluency. Business English embraces the day-to-day professional world of

presentations, meetings and conference calls, and covers topics related to

business functions, such as marketing and finance, as well as topics related

to business sectors, such as banking and pharmaceuticals.

The facts are in. Enterprise Fluency is not just a nicety; it is business

critical for expanding your global footprint, entering new markets

and managing global talent. Global enterprises need a global

solution for improving Enterprise Fluency. The situation is

too pressing, and the stakes too high, for anything less.
