Leading in English takes more than vocabulary.

01For your teams

You have to hold a meeting without losing it, say difficult things with the right degree of firmness, and read what is happening in a room where nobody is speaking their first language. I build this training on your situations, not on textbook dialogues.

02Real situations

Five situations we work on

Running a meeting where you are the only non-native speaker
Opening, framing, politely cutting off someone who is overrunning, rephrasing what has just been said, closing with clear decisions. Without losing the thread or the authority.
Correcting a team member without putting their back up
Firmness in English is not pitched where it is in French. Too direct and it lands as aggression; too polite and nobody realises there is a problem. We work on the middle ground, sentence by sentence.
Leading an annual review in English
Giving precise feedback, listening to the reply, setting objectives and writing them up in the HR register head office expects. Recruitment, absence, departures: the vocabulary that goes with it.
Writing an email that gets answered
An email to head office, a supplier, a subsidiary: short, clear, with a request that cannot be ignored. We start from your real emails and rewrite them together.
Understanding non-native colleagues
Most international meetings do not sound like London. They sound like Hamburg, Milan or Bangalore. We train on those accents, because those are the ones you actually hear.

The sectors

Aerospace, pharmaceuticals, banking, renewable energy: the sectors where English is the internal working language rather than an option. I prepare the training with your procedures, your org charts and your reports.
