Q: What are the benefits of learning a foreign language?
An employee possessing a solid combination of language and business/managerial skills can have a competitive edge over others without language capability.
Q: What problems can result from not knowing a foreign language?
Managers admit that miscommunication occurs fairly frequently in international business settings. In business dealings, details and nuances of meaning are often missed or misinterpreted by individuals lacking real proficiency in the language being used. As a result, efficiency suffers, and decisions are often made on the basis of incomplete data. Managers also report difficulty in establishing rapport with their foreign counterparts, as well as limited opportunities for social interactions due to their lack of language proficiency. All parties believe that their overall business and daily operations run more smoothly with employees who are proficient in the foreign language.
