Students often ask me if we can use idioms and slang in professional situations - and the answer is "it depends." Some expressions are not appropriate for the workplace, but there are many that you can use in conversations among co-workers and less formal emails. Today you'll learn 15 English idioms & phrasal verbs you CAN use at work.

There are several more lessons about business idioms inside our Business English Course.
