with Sarah Wheeler
February 8, 2025, Saturday
10 AM Pacific/ 1 PM Eastern time
[USA and Canada]
on Zoom
As the interpreting profession evolves due to globalization, remote platforms, and increasing multilingual demands, interpreters—both spoken and signed—must manage linguistic complexities and emotional dynamics during high-pressure assignments.
To meet these challenges, interpreters must develop a strong foundation in Emotional Intelligence (EI)—the ability to understand and manage their own emotions and recognize and influence the emotions of others.
This dynamic, interactive workshop will provide participants with practical tools to strengthen their interpreting skills while navigating the complexities of emotional and cultural dynamics. Through real-world scenarios, guided reflection, and actionable strategies, interpreters will build confidence and empathy in their roles.
Workshop Objectives:
- Explore Core EQ-i Competencies: Emotional self-awareness, empathy, adaptability, and stress tolerance, and their impact on interpreting outcomes.
- Analyze Emotional and Cultural Nuances: Uncover the emotional and cultural dynamics that shape effective interpreting.
- Develop Growth Plans: Encourage participants to identify opportunities for improvement and create actionable steps for professional development.
Key Takeaways for Participants:
By the end of the workshop, participants will:
- Gain insights into the emotional and cultural dynamics that influence interpreting.
- Strengthen EQ competencies to improve their professional effectiveness.
- Leave with practical strategies they can apply in their work.
