Professional Challenges

Professional Challenges: Understanding Hurdles that a child faces in Professional Setting

Speech and Language:

Every professional setting values good communication skills. Our speech, which is made up of the combination of pronunciation, accent, voice, and fluency, directly impacts how well others are able to understand us, so it’s important to put our best foot forward with clear and effective speech in the professional setting.


Being able to use language effectively in all situations is also essential when communicating in the workplace. This means understanding and using the appropriate words and sentences both in verbal and written form, in order to display our knowledge, professionalism and skills at our job. Furthermore, appropriate and effective use of language can evoke emotion, loyalty and respect, further increasing efficiency and productivity, as well as eliminating mistakes and the likelihood of misunderstanding. Speech-Language Pathologists understand this and can work with you to achieve your communication goals, enabling you to put your best foot forward at work.
