Our next workshoparrow_forward The Elevator Pitch

Our mobile workshops travel across the globe to bring you cutting-edge language techniques for specific business skills.

Doing business in English demands a variety of communication competences. How do you pitch your product or close a deal with a tough negotiator? What are the best phrases to make your presentation flow? Having difficulty understanding what your client is saying on the phone?

Our workshops cover the following topics, alone or in combination:

• Sales pitch and follow-through
  Learn how to present yourself and your product/service with the right words and style. Second impressions are as important as the first: whether face to face, by email or on the phone, use the right language in warming up your contacts.
• Negotiations
  Acquire the general English language negotiation skills to cover the basics of international negotiations as well as particular cross-cultural competences for trade relations in a particular country. Navigate the cultural nuances to enhance your powers of persuasion, influence and success.
• Meetings
  Opening, participating, mediating, closing, expressing agreements and disagreements are just some of the essential communication tools you’ll acquire for attending meetings in English.
• Presentations
  Make your presentation flow coherently and stylishly. Here is the terminology you need for presenting and structuring your subject and engaging with your audience.
• Telephoning / Telco
  Speaking with an unseen partner has its special challenges. Learn the essential vocabulary and phrases for telephoning and teleconferencing in English. Increase your confidence by practicing with a variety of work-relevant scenarios.
• Networking & Socialising
  Among the most important skills you need to develop your international business is networking: the pitch perfect introduction of yourself, your colleagues, company and product’s USPs, as well as the proper listening and responding techniques with others.
• Writing emails, reports, specifications
  Whether formal or informal, express yourself in writing with the right words in the right order with the right punctuation. Leave the workshop with your template for future texts.
• Topics specific to you and your company upon request
  If you need a workshop on a specific topic not listed here, our course developers are happy to sit down with you, draw up specifications and design a workshop that meets your requirements for your business in English.
