“Language World – Thank you for your excellent service. We appreciate the streamline process to obtain an interpreter, as well as the availability, professionalism and skills of the interpreter. When there are difficult situations, giving an employee the ability to speak from their heart (their first language), we can help clarify the issues and speed up resolutions. And, if we discover some communication that was missed, the go-forward plan has a greater chance for success. We hope we don’t need you again, but if we do we have confidence that our needs will be met.” D l S l T Customer Communications |
