This 90-minute introduction to cultural diversity explores the way communication is affected by race, ethnicity, age, gender, customs, social class, physical and mental ability, religious or spiritual background, and even geography, climate, history, social class and family occupation.

Words contain the elements of ideology, values, norms, folkways, laws, taboos, technology, social collectives, status and roles. The meaning of words is embedded in the culture of the individual or organization expressing the ideas that such words convey. Every translator and interpreter must be aware of the diverse belief systems that such symbols - the words - represent, not only in terms of the culture of the source words but also in terms of his/her own culture, which will impact the target words.

    For a large segment of freelancers and agency owners, Email is perhaps the only affordable and effective tool for taking one's services to clients distributed globally and locally. Unfortunately, the potential of this extremely powerful tool is not harnessed due to lack of awareness and not understanding email from the standpoint of human behavior. As long as reader of an email remains a human, without factoring human behavior into designing and deployment of emails, the tool will not be as effective as it should be.

    Module I of the Course emphasizes this aspect in details and with real-life examples that confirm the behavioral aspect. Once these issues are pre-considered in your campaign, the chance of being noticed and the urge to engage increase significantly.

    Module II is more practical and answers the who, when, how, what next aspect of an email marketing campaign. Step by step guide to make an email marketing letter/campaign of such loaded potential that the recipient would not be able to ignore it.

    How are you dealing with the realities of this challenging worldwide economy? Are you struggling to find clients? Are your clients constantly asking you to lower your rates? How much thought have you given to the following questions?

    • What is unique and compelling about YOU?
    • What is the VALUE you can offer your clients?
    • Are you in control of your translation career?
    • Are you getting paid what you are worth?

    To stay competitive in today's fierce marketplace, professionals, executives and business owners must cultivate their own personal brand. Translators are no exception. The translation industry is overcrowded. To succeed today and be in control of your business and your career as a professional translator you need more than credentials, experience and tools. The key to success and achieving your goals is to differentiate yourself through a strong brand. You need to sell to the world your unique promise of value. Otherwise, you will compete just on the basis of price.

    Program:
    This one-hour keynote presentation will cover the following topics:

    • Understand what a brand is and is not; distill some myths about branding.
    • Learn about "personal branding"—what it is, why it came about and, why everybody needs to think of themselves as a personal brand.
    • Recognize the importance of a personal brand.
    • Learn the key steps in building a personal brand.

    The ultimate purpose of the session is to outline the general structure of a successful freelancing career. It will help translators to set long-term goals and streamline the implementation process as well as warn them against typical errors in building their career as freelance translators.

    Before a lengthy car trip, we do a lot of things: consult the weather forecast, fill in the window washer tank, and, primarily, plan the route choosing roads, taking note of places to avoid, booking hotels on the way... And it's merely a car trip. Delayed arrival is about the worst that can happen to us. It's but logical that, before starting as a freelancer, we should learn as much as possible about the road we'll be traveling along.

    This session is intended for those who consider starting or have recently started their freelance careers. We'll discuss the typical stages of the career development focusing on general aims, goals and milestones characteristic for each stage as well as ways and methods of reaching these aims, goals and targets.

    The video deals with freelancing and, specifically, freelance translation starting from the initial steps (assessing one's suitability for freelancing, taking first steps, etc.) essential for beginners to sophisticated topics like viability of outsourcing or starting a translation agency. The entire program is listed below.

    It is intended for those who consider starting their freelance careers. There are both pros and contras to either type of professional activities (inhouse vs. freelance) as well as specific issues to freelancing which we often discover only after we start – and what’s worse, we find that we don’t like them! The result is wasted time and effort.

    It will deal with the freelance environment, including general description of the scope of responsibilities (and their comparison vs. inhouse position); the negative aspects of freelancing; psychological implications; consequences for health; and, as opposed, the benefits, such as possibility to manage one’s workload and income, shift one’s working time and adjust schedule, etc. We'll also try to have a look at common perception of (translation) freelancing and see if it's true or wrong.

    The ultimate purpose of this video is to provide information to potential freelancers so they could make perfectly informed decisions, whether negative or positive.
