Communication Skills and Spoken English
I am working as a Deputy Manager in a pharmaceutical company for 17 years, primarily handling administrative duties. Recently, I was transferred to a sister company, a technical testing lab. My Head of Department/Director has emphasized that proficiency in English is essential for daily interactions with employees and customers.
At the beginning of my career, I was only BA qualified when I joined this pharmaceutical company. Since then, I have completed my LLB and am currently pursuing an MBA. Could you please advise if improving my spoken English is crucial for advancing my career?
