Absolutely. Moreover, that's why we are conducting a study on leadership and language of work. I hope that report can supplement Monique Collette's report. I hope it will serve as a tool to managers and reinforce this key issue.
I've noticed one thing, in particular: when there is a change of minister, deputy minister or director, the climate in the work place may change at the drop of a hat. If a minister takes the matter seriously, we suddenly see improvements.
However, if it's something secondary for a minister, a deputy minister or assistant deputy minister, we can very quickly see a change in linguistic culture within an organization.
