No one should feel “less than” or be held back because of communication challenges.
You are an intelligent, hardworking professional who has reached a respectable level of success in your career.
While you have acquired advanced English language skills, there are still some final communication barriers that hold you back from advancing in your career, leading teams with confidence or achieving the level of success you once enjoyed back home.

- Feels limited or frustrated in not being able to reach your career potential
- Worries you will be overlooked for higher-level positions or leadership roles
- Is concerned your talents and capabilities are underutilized
- Struggles with communicating your knowledge, expertise and creative ideas effectively
- Feels stressed and drained in meetings because you don’t feel confident when speaking or presenting in public
- Spends too much time drafting emails and other forms of communication compared to your native English-speaking colleagues
- Is afraid to engage or express your insights “on the fly” when asked for feedback or an assessment of a situation by a boss or manager
You’ve come to the right place.
