Although the Dutch language doesn’t take global prominance, in Belgium it plays a hugely important role in business. There are over 56% native speakers in the country according to a recent count with a further 15% speaking Dutch as a second language. Nowadays companies require their employees to master at least two or three languages, and this definitely goes for people in positions with a lot of responsibility.
Maintaining a daily conversation in Dutch is one thing, communicating at a high professional level is something else. Dutch is full of idiomatic expressions and advanced grammatical structures are often used to express ideas in a subtle way.
The art of communicating your thoughts in Dutch in professional situations such as meetings and negotiations in a polished manner is one that can bring you huge benefits, but also one that few people truly master.
