“CORE IDEA: How do I express myself effectively in English at work?”

The ability to communicate in English is often associated with professionalism, credibility, and career growth. However, many employees who have a basic command of English still hesitate to speak due to fear of making mistakes, lack of confidence, or uncertainty about how to express their thoughts clearly.
