This book considers what is at stake for professionals whose work
increasingly involves communicating in linguistically and
culturally diverse contexts, and argues for the need to better
understand the crucial role of languages and cultures in the modern
workplace. With a focus on the experience of multilingual
professionals, the author's position is that such professionals,
exemplified by those who have relocated internationally, deploy
their unique linguistic, cultural and intercultural repertoires in
their work. This book examines the ways in which professionals
interpret and manage their experience of working within and across
languages and cultures in ways that create affordances for them,
their professional practice, and those who depend on their
knowledge and expertise. It will be relevant to undergraduate and
postgraduate students undertaking studies in applied linguistics,
sociolinguistics, intercultural education and professional
communication in any discipline.
