Professionals: need to pronounce English better?

A businessman was speaking about a client of his who spoke English but was hard to understand. "By the time I understood the word he mispronounced, he was so far ahead that I missed important information." People from other nationalities work very hard to learn American English, but sometimes their pronunciation of it causes them problems. In addition, they also have to learn when NOT to pronounce certain sounds. For example, in the word "clothes", the "th" is silent. (Only English has a 'th" sound.)

Professionals wanting to improve their pronunciation of American English are invited to register for Pronunciation Improvement for Non-native Professionals, a three day intensive seminar May 3 - 5, 2010. The course is offered by Business Speech Improvement. Details are at http://businessspeechimprovement.com/enabler/scripts/category.pl?Classes . The class size is limited, and early enrollment is encouraged.

Some American companies are willing to sponsor an employee for this course if the employee will request it. They know that clear verbal communication benefits both the employee and the company.
