Typewriter

Translation is the product of a series of processes; it’s not just a matter of converting something written in one language into another.

In this post, we’re going to provide you with some practical steps which will allow you to translate any document in a more methodical and professional manner.

In order to produce a high-quality translation that reads well in your target language, you have to be organised. That’s why it’s extremely useful to follow a well-structured methodology.

Shawn Achor: The happy secret to better work

Woman with unicornThis is a summary of a tedtalk.
Listen to the talk: www.ted.com/talks/shawn_achor_the_happy_secret_to_better_work

When I was seven and my sister Amy was five, we were playing on our bunk beds, she fell off and I in an attempt to stop her crying so I wouldn’t get into trouble said to her, “Amy, Amy, wait. Don’t cry. Don’t cry. Did you see how you landed? No human lands on all fours like that.

The way to maximize freedom is to maximize choice.Continue Reading

Philip Evans: How data will transform business

Data CenterThis is a summary of a tedtalk.

Listen to the talk: http://www.ted.com/talks/philip_evans_how_data_will_transform_business

We tend to think of business strategy as being a rather abstract body of essentially economic thought, perhaps rather timeless. In fact, business strategy has always been premised on assumptions about technology, that those assumptions are changing quite dramatically. What that will drive us to is a different concept of what we mean by business strategy.Continue Reading
