| Abstract: | Organizations find themselves having to find a working language with the increased globalization of economy and business. Linguists have attempted to assess the economic value of language as a commodity, but with little success. This paper introduces the social-judgment theory to linguists, economists and strategic planners as a theoretical and methodological tool for assessing the value of a working language. |
