ExecuSpeak Dictionary is Your Key to Career Advancement

Philadelphia, PA, September 2, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Carol Heiberger not only has a head for business, but also a way with words.  Throughout her corporate career, she considered her ability to write clearly as a secret weapon, but noticed a persistent communication gap between her colleagues and their coworkers.  It was this gap, she realized, that hindered progress. 

“I was the only multi-lingual person on the team because I had learned to speak the language of all of the departments—finance, marketing, engineering, etc.” Heiberger continues, “Now my goal is to facilitate communication between all functions…in the meeting room and beyond. The first step to better communication is to ensure a shared vocabulary.”

"ExecuSpeak Dictionary is dedicated to anyone who has ever been frustrated or confused by American Business English, because business is another language."
