Is the Language Barrier an Obstacle When You Hire Global Employees?
Did you know that about 13% of the world speaks English? Estimates indicate that approximately 1.75 billion people speak English worldwide. Less than 5% of the world speaks English as their native language, but many people speak English as a second language, which makes it one of the most widely spoken languages across the globe and the go-to language for many global businesses.

- Better Intellectual Skills – Multilingual employees who have mastered English as a second language have been shown to possess better cognitive skills that can have a positive impact on your business. Multilingual employees have the ability to transition to different tasks faster than those who do not have that skill set and these individuals tend to be more analytical and innovative with better decision-making skills than many who are not multilingual.
- Creates a Multicultural Workforce – Language is a key component of culture and when you add multilingual workers to your payroll, it expands the cultural knowledge of the team and can lead to increased teamwork and collaboration.
