Language Boss

Full Company Profile:

Language Boss gives training on how to speak and write professionally in the workplace. If poor communication skills are causing problems in your organisation, we can help. We run our courses virtually, but if you require, we can run them in-person as well.

We offer four main courses:

Writing Works

We are writing more than at any other time in history, and now more than ever there is a great need for clear and effective written communication. Writing Works is a course that addresses this need. This course will make you a more effective, professional and readable writer.​

The course is delivered over four 3.5-hour sessions via Google Meet. In between each session, participants do tasks and exercises on Language Boss’s online workbench.

Write Click

This course aims to improve your business-writing skills in general and your email

effectiveness in particular. Through two practical, virtual sessions, as well as tasks and exercises between the sessions, you learn how to construct and write emails that will be opened, read and responded to.​

The course is delivered over two 3.5-hour sessions via Google Meet. In between the sessions, participants do tasks and exercises to embed learnings.

Conversation Clever

Everybody has them. Conversations. Some are carefree; others are high-risk. But they all impact on our lives. And they impact on our organisations. Talking to others is the most human of skills, but, sadly, we are not very skilful at it. This course will make you a whole lot better.​​

The course is delivered over three 3-hour sessions via Google Meet.

Show Up and Deliver

Speaking well to an audience is a highly prized skill. But it also happens to be highly learnable. This practical, online course teaches you how to prepare and deliver engaging and impactful presentations, for the real and virtual world. ​

The course is delivered over two sessions (4 hours and 3 hours) via Google Meet. In between the sessions, participants do work in preparation for Day 2.

Our key clients include the following: Allan Gray, Coronation, Hannover Re, Investec, Media 24, Metropolitan Health, Old Mutual, Sasria and Woolworths.
