When English Becomes the Company Language

Supporting employees through language change, cultural shifts,
and everyday communication.

What happens when a company suddenly switches its working
language to English?

For many HR professionals and employees, it’s not just about
vocabulary – it’s about confidence, culture, and inclusion.

In this episode, I talk with Hannah Yurk, HR
English Specialist, about what really helps multilingual teams
communicate effectively and feel at ease in global settings.

We discuss:

How non-native English speaking HR professionals feel in
meetings

How HR can support employees during a language transition

Why fluency isn’t the goal – clarity and confidence are

The hidden cultural factors that shape communication

Practical ways to make meetings and feedback inclusive for
everyone

Whether English is new to your company or already part of your
daily work, this conversation offers hands-on advice for HR
leaders navigating international collaboration.

Listen to People Data Friends – the podcast for modern,
data-driven and human-centered HR.
