Business-related mobility is now the norm for professionals, academics, vocational workers, and students. Individuals are often called to communicate in a foreign language in cultural settings that diverge significantly from their own and from one country to another. This takes place in the context of not only physical but also virtual mobility enabled by on-line tools and communities. To meet work objectives, professionals rely on vehicular languages, such as English, German, or French. While professional training programs strive to bring language competency to working levels, many fail to address the diverging use of a lingua franca in varying cultural and work environments, which is affected by transfer effects, localized expressions, and communication norms.
