    Episode 30 - What does upskilling mean? (Business English)
    Apr 20 2021
    In episode 30, we’re talking about upskilling - teaching employees new, sometimes advanced, skills in order to fill the skills gap. But why should companies invest in upskilling their employees? In addition to the obvious benefits of keeping up with innovation and staying ahead of your competition, upskilling existing employees is cheaper than hiring new people. It also boosts retention and engagement. Empowering your employees to choose what they want to learn and how they want to grow will help them feel more in charge of their career progression. Some new words we’re explaining in this episode include: team morale, to be savvy, to be ahead of the curve and well-rounded.

    Episode 28 - Resilience technology (Business English)
    Aug 18 2020
    In episode 28, we’re talking about resilience. And in the context of startups, we’re going to be talking about resilience technology. Resilience is a word that can apply to people, to businesses, to systems, to the economy and even to the planet. If we want to recover faster when we’re faced with a setback, we obviously need to innovate and be one step ahead. This is where resilience tech comes to the rescue. Sometimes even literally. According to the Consumer Technology Association, resilient technologies are those that keep the world healthy, safe, powered, fed and secure, even in the face of adversity. Entrepreneurs in this niche want to tackle global challenges and threats such as climate change, forest fires, rapid population growth and urbanization, or coastal erosion. In this context, if you tackle a problem, that means you deal with it or you try to solve it.
