Promoting Language equity and diversity at the workplaces and in our community is one way of fostering inclusive communication and creating innovative solutions to the workforce shortage that keeps many business decision makers awake. The good news is that, If every person who learns a second language masters it, the world’s economy would benefit from multilingual professionals in different industries. Successful leaders and educators cannot remain undecided to tap into that treasure. The ILVW community will discuss their role in preserving and uplevel our language heritage.
