Episode 261: EwK261 - Getting the right input to develop your business English
English with Kirsty - A podcast by Kirsty Major - Tuesdays
Today I'm talking about some of the activities in which I've been participating in order to develop my language skills in a way that's relevant to work. Whether that was attending a Women in Localisation webinar in Portuguese, meeting a Toastmaster's group in Portugal, or planning future attendance at a workshop in German - all of these things are somehow work-related and at the same time, they help me to develop relevant, work-related vocabulary. I should add that I didn't need to look for these opportunities. all of the invitations came to me through my network. If you spend time getting to know people and building relationships, those people will probably invite you to things!I also talk about some other things you can do such as looking for industry-specific podcasts, publications, or social media accounts.Whether you're developing your passive listening skills at a webinar, participating in a workshop, or even going on a podcast in an additional language - all of these things can help you to grow and become a more confident user of your additional language/s.Here is the show notes page. https://englishwithkirsty.com/podcast/episode261/You can send me a message with any feedback at [email protected] or come and find me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kirsty-wolf-a8478235/
