Keywords:
Corporate English, workplace, environment, employee, practice, training, communicationAbstract
The beginning of English language in Bangladesh had an agitated past as well as an indifferent but overwhelming present. Till now, Bangladesh is largely considered as a monolingual country where English is intensely important for international communication. The British people took an Action project to enhance the use of their language, which is English as a tool for better access to world employment. This was one of the biggest reasons behind establishing English as an International language of the world. In this research the researcher intends to highlight the problems and prospects of corporate English inside Bangladesh. The research sites were located at different corporate houses of Dhaka city. Both quantitative and analytical methods have been incorporated in the study in analyzing the data. Based on these, some proposals have been made to create awareness and to minimize the problems of using English at the corporate level of the employees.
