INTRODUCTION

As we know, English is the language which connects people from

different regions, cultures and nations. By default, due to the fact
that the British ruled most parts of the world a few years ago, they
could conveniently sow the seeds of English language and culture
in those countries. Though not intended, the British gave a
common language to the world. It has helped the world in sharing
any kind of information fast and clear without any translation.
Though the British left their colonies a long time back, their efforts
and reforms in the field of education are yielding results now.

Globalization has encouraged the domestic companies to think

beyond their nations. People don’t mind taking challenging and
fruitful overseas assignments these days. As English is spoken in
most of the countries, language is no more a barrier for people
who intend to settle down in other countries.

Tool for employability

India too has contributed a good number of vocabularies to the
modern English language and which have become a part of
standard dictionaries
As the private sector companies are gaining ground and
becoming more competitive due to changed world economy, the
employees are always kept on their toes. It is like either you work
hard and show your performance or perish for not taking care of
your professional growth. The ability to use a language efficiently
is very much required to remain employable. What is
employability? It is the ability to remain employable as a result of
the relevant skills one possesses. Communication skills are very
much essential for one’s professional growth. The ability to
express fluently in both written as well as oral form of language is
very much essential for the career growth.

Employability skills
Communication means the exchange of information, ideas,
feelings and thoughts. The type of communication which is used
in the corporate world is business communication. It is not mere
exchange of ideas. In the world of business the communication
system is considered effective, only if there is some positive
transaction. If the sender of information is just able to convey the
message without any fruitful deal, then the communication is not
effective.
Effective communication includes the ability to communicate
Those who are in favour of English for effective communication
would say that English is the official language in most of the
companies in cities these days.
‘Team work for better success’ is the mantra followed by most
companies. So there is no space for individual glory. Employees
are expected to be interactive and communicative with others in
the team and outside.
The purpose being people are expected to read, write, speak and
understand English.

Communication in English
Communication takes place in two ways; verbal and non-verbal.
Verbal communication takes place with the usage of words.
Non-verbal communication means expression of ideas through
gestures, eye contact, postures and body movements.
It is not confined to any language. Verbal communication
constitutes oral and written form of communication. Oral
communication skills include the ability to speak effectively, listen
actively and respond efficiently according to the situation.
It helps in oral presentation, video conferencing, telephonic
conversation, meeting, interviews etc.

Written communication skills means the ability to write effectively

and it also includes the ability to read and understand the
language used for communication.
If a person is labeled as good communicator in English, he is
supposed to be master in oral as well as form of English.
