In today's globalized society, professional encounters are increasingly multilingual, posing both enrichment and challenges. Achieving communicative efficiency across languages in professional settings is complex, with various strategies available. Overlooking language's role in identity and trust-building can hinder effective communication.

This conference aims to explore needs, policies, and practices for managing linguistic diversity in professional settings. It will examine how organizations address linguistic diversity, challenges it presents, how it enriches professional environments, effective practices, and approaches to teaching languages for professional communication within diverse linguistic contexts. Presentations will be delivered in a language different from slides, emphasizing linguistic diversity.
