Why do global executives need help with their spoken English skills?
This was the subject of my in-depth discussion with Edwin B Cohen .
We discussed:
– the challenges promotion can create for non-native speaking executives managing global #teams
– the specific challenges speakers of different languages face with speaking English
– how a research-based programme can help them
– how non-verbal communication gestures can lose meaning out of context when we switch languages
We also explored Pronounceme‘s flagship programme, English Mastery for Global Professionals, which has created transformations for executives from many language backgrounds, including French, Spanish, Italian, Mandarin and Hindi.

and now something about me …
In 1980 I relocated from Boston to LA. Earlier, I had formed USBOUND™ Relocation Guides and recognized the need to experience a relo. Big Market awaited me…
Launched multi-edition (print/glossy) CALIFORNIA BOUND™.
Oct’84 produced #1 “live” conference in association with LA Chamber of Commerce; our keynoter was Chief of LA Economic Development. We talked about the role of “relocation”. Event was sponsored by services providers.
CALIFORNIA BOUND™ conferences produced throughout the 80’s.
Interest rates were sky-high 12%-18%.
Guess what: people who could afford to buy a home were the corporate transfers because they could prove a guaranteed income.
Realtors and Relocation services firms were my customers.
Mid 80’s me and the team created/produced the #1 area guide video … actually it focused on young engineers needing advice about relo to LA’s beach towns, adjacent to the aerospace community, nearby was the very active LA Westside + CenturyCity + UCLA; a short distance was DTLA (downtown LA).
My video partner was a well-known “Hollywood” TVcamera-man.
In his Mustang convertible we drove the beach-town streets shooting film/tape of the scene + impromptu street interviews I had with locals about living/working in the area. It was great fun and we developed a new product.
My #1 customer was Hughes Aircraft Company.
They used many copies for recruitment and relo assistance.
During 80’s expanded production to include San Francisco/Silicon Valley and also an edition called
SAN DIEGO BOUND™.
Additional ….
NEW YORK BOUND™,
FLORIDA BOUND™,
CHICAGO BOUND™,
TEXAS BOUND™,
ARIZONA BOUND™.
We began producing “live” conferences in each market bringing together corporate users and various services/providers to lunch, learn, network.
’94 launched a newspaper (print) to better cover growing “global”.
I called it (CRN) Corporate Relocation News™.
1st edition’s cover story featured the senior HR manager at TOYOTA USA, based in LA.
Content: The changing needs of companies; cross-border employment and communications across time, space, cultures.
NOV’97 we produced #1 global conference in London.
In NOV’99 we did Paris at LeMeridien Montparnasse and 300 attended.
Yes, we partied like it was 1999 and “Le Beaujolais Nouveau arrivé!”
GLOBALHRnews™ GLOBALHRnews.com originally launched in ’01.
It was developed to talk about the growing needs of corporate HR to speak “global”.
Advertisers made it a profitable venture.
Today GLOBALHRnews.com continues within GLOBALBUSINESSnews.net .
2020 Pandemic came, 30-year “live” conference biz crashed.
In response, launched GlobalTVtalkshows™ producing 770+ programs since Spring 2020… generating an audience of 235,000 (cumulative) in 100+ countries.
amen…

In the recent May, Steven heard me speak on my ‘PEACE Protocol’ for C-Level Leaders at an event that Ed flew to London to produce and Moderate a conference, GLOBAL LONDON was Hosted by global trade bank HSBC inside their HQ at Canary Wharf. Steven was the Closing keynote. That encounter led to Steven inviting me to contribute to his event, ‘The Future of Work | The Future of Leadership’ on e360tv yesterday. This turned out to be a live event simulcast on Amazon Fire, Apple TV, Roku and others. I was the only voice representing Europe.
