Have you ever said to yourself, “What is there to it? I’ve been to soft skills training. I am assertive enough and my colleagues even go as far as to say that I am a born diplomat.” This is all well and good and very useful, but remember that discussions in Czech are something entirely different to discussions in a foreign language. English has its own (more-or-less) hidden specifics that you have to master if you want to negotiate successfully and without which you simply will not manage.

After taking this programme your expression will come across as more self-confident and natural. You will know how to negotiate, you will gain in self-confidence for more active participation in teleconferences or at meetings and you will feel more relaxed when communicating.
