Multilingual Marketing
About 75% of the world’s population speak no English at all. At present count, that’s some five billion people you’re not able to reach if your online presence is English-language only. Add to that findings by the Chartered Institute of Marketing that ‘export sales of companies that make an effort to understand each nation’s way of life, consumer tastes, culture and language are growing by, on average, £290K per company per year,’ and you have a powerful incentive to go multilingual with your online marketing. Here’s how...
Chaos and Communication
A recent worldwide survey revealed that there are 6,800 languages and dialects spoken globally today. While I am often amazed how inaccurate communications can get, when you consider the number of languages spoken, it is somewhat amazing that we communicate at all. It could be argued that most problems in human interaction arise from poor communication. Assuming that none of us set out to miscommunicate, it is important to explore why our best intentions to transfer knowledge, emotion, and details fall short. Remember, just because you're talking doesn't mean anyone's hearing. If they are hearing, it doesn't mean they're listening to you. Even if they are listening to you, it doesn't mean that they understand what you're saying.

Watch your Language - the truth about language, diversity, and customer service
If you employ workers whose first language isn’t English, you may have come to regard these individuals as your organization’s greatest resource.

Relaxing with a Mental PDA - Your 5 minutes Daily Program to Stress Management
We all have this favorite expression when it comes to being stressed out, and I wouldn't bother naming all of them since it may also vary in different languages. But when it comes down to it, I think that it is how we work or even relax, for that matter that triggers stress. Ever been stressed even when you're well relaxed and bored? I know I have.
Enhancing Your Business Language
What we say matters in communication. How we say it is just as important. According to Albert Mehrabian, 7 percent of face-to-face communication is words (language), and tone (38 percent). Over the telephone, words hold more weight because if we don’t understand the language used (foreign), then tone becomes irrelevant. Monotone languages (like Malay and English) are easier to learn, whereas multi-tone languages (Mandarin, for instance) is harder to master as there are four tones.
Yield of Dreams
n the early 1950s, Florence Chadwick became the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. During her first attempt, she had been swimming for hours and was getting very near to the English coast. That's when the seas turned much colder and heavy swells developed. A dense fog settled in blocking everything from view with a chilly wet blanket. As Florence's pace slowed and energy drained, her mother called through the fog from one of the small boats following behind, "Come on, Florence, you can make it. It's only a little further."
