    Ep. 8 Update & I'm Sorry vs I Apologize

    Is saying “I apologize” the same as saying “I’m sorry”? In Episode 8 of the Bespoke Business English Podcast, Dominic Chase explores how these expressions can communicate different levels of formality, emotional engagement, responsibility, and remorse. “I apologize” can serve as a professional acknowledgment that something went wrong while maintaining emotional distance. “I’m sorry” can communicate a more personal response, suggesting genuine regret about the effect of an action. The right choice depends on the situation, the relationship, and the feeling you want the other person to receive. Through examples involving business, clients, marriage, and the podcast itself, Dominic demonstrates how people hear both the words you choose and the alternatives you leave unsaid. The episode also includes a personal and business update and a correction to a factual mistake from the previous episode, illustrating that accountability requires more than words. It also requires acknowledging mistakes, correcting the information, and responding appropriately.

    Ep. 7 Comprehension Skills vs Application Skills

    Understanding something does not necessarily mean you can apply it. In Episode 7 of the Bespoke Business English Podcast, Dominic Chase explores the difference between comprehension and application skills and explains how this distinction affects language development, professional growth, and leadership. Using stages of reading development as a framework, Dominic follows the journey from encountering unfamiliar information and absorbing knowledge to experimenting, making mistakes, organizing knowledge, establishing personal standards, and eventually creating new solutions. The episode also examines how leaders can recognize whether someone is still learning, demonstrating potential, becoming dependable, developing expertise, or preparing to challenge existing systems. These distinctions can improve how we delegate responsibilities, evaluate readiness, support development, and understand our own professional limitations. This episode is for leaders, learners, teachers, and professionals who want to understand where they are in their development, identify what their next stage requires, and transform knowledge into confident, independent action.

    Ep. 6 How to End Emails in English

    How should you end an email, and what does your closing say about you? In Episode 6 of the Bespoke Business English Podcast, Dominic Chase explores the language used at the end of personal and professional emails. Familiar closings such as “sincerely,” “best wishes,” “regards,” “looking forward,” and “thank you in advance” may be safe, but they can also feel repetitive, impersonal, demanding, or unclear. Their effect depends on the relationship, context, intention, and emotional history between the people communicating. Dominic presents the end of an email as valuable communication and marketing space. A carefully chosen closing can support a call to action, strengthen a relationship, express personality, reinforce your personal brand, and help the recipient remember you. This episode is for professionals who want to move beyond automatic phrases and make more deliberate language choices. You will learn to consider the impression you want to create and choose a closing that supports your message, your relationship with the recipient, and the professional identity you want to communicate.

    Ep. 3 The Value of Business English Empathy

    What happens between listening and speaking? In Episode 3 of the Bespoke Business English Podcast, Dominic Chase introduces Business English Empathy: the ability to recognize the meaning, emotion, and intention behind another person’s language and respond in a way that supports the outcome you want to create. Through examples involving negotiations, relationships, sales, and everyday communication, Dominic demonstrates how grammar and vocabulary paint pictures. He explores the differences between “agree to,” “agree with,” and “agree on,” explains what simple, continuous, and perfect tenses can communicate, and shows how a person’s language may reveal their priorities, confidence, emotional engagement, and position of power. This episode is for professionals who want to listen beyond the literal words and communicate with greater awareness and precision. Business English Empathy can help you understand the picture your counterpart is creating, adapt your response, and use English as a more effective tool for connection, negotiation, and influence.

    Ep. 2 What made me choose Poland?

    Why would an American choose Poland over the United States as the place to build his life and business? In Episode 2 of the Bespoke Business English Podcast, Dominic Chase answers one of the questions he has heard most frequently since moving to Warsaw: “Why Poland?” Through stories from Poland, America, and Nepal, Dominic explores how culture shapes our perspective, communication, expectations, and understanding of other people. He shares the support he has received from Polish professionals and explains why he sees Poland as a market filled with ambition, resilience, talent, and unrealized opportunity. The episode also presents a powerful business question: What makes you angry? When a company, service, or industry consistently fails to meet people’s needs, that frustration may reveal an opportunity to create something better. This episode is a personal expression of gratitude to Poland and an invitation for professionals and entrepreneurs to recognize the possibilities already surrounding them.
