Business Professionals’ Attitudes toward Foreign Language use

Journal Title: SAR Journal - Science and Research - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 3

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine what business professionals’ attitudes are toward foreign language use and whether the company sector, organizational size and age are important variables in the use of foreign language. The majority seems aware of the importance of foreign language use and claim they would like to hone their language skills in the future. Furthermore, the findings show that business professionals in internationally oriented sectors (e.g. transport, tourism, IT,...) believe foreign languages are more important than those who work in locally oriented sectors (e.g. processing industry, civil engineering, public service).
