Success Phrases in Business English

Talking about success is important in job interviews, performance reviews, presentations and team meetings. However, many English learners use phrases like big success or get success, which sound unnatural to native speakers. In this short video, you will learn three better collocations. Instead of big success, say major achievement. For example, Launching the new product was a major achievement for our team. Instead of small success, say minor win, a natural phrase for small but positive results. For example, Getting the client to reply was a minor win. And instead of get success, say achieve success. For example, You can achieve success with consistent effort. Get success is a common mistake, because in English we usually achieve success or become successful. Learning collocations, words that naturally go together, is one of the best ways to sound fluent and professional. These phrases will help you describe your results with confidence, especially when talking about your career, your company or your team. Watch the video, repeat each phrase out loud and think of a real achievement you can describe. Practice using them in your CV, interviews and meetings, and your business English will sound much more natural.
