Going off the deep end: being more that JUST a translator. UTICamp-2019

Going off the deep end: being more that JUST a translator. UTICamp-2019 Speaker: Inga Michaeli, CEO at Wander Words
About the speaker:

In the past ten years, we’ve seen many translators try to cope with the changing landscape of this industry by calling themselves linguists, transcreators and what not. Yet, it seems that the state of mind of many of us hasn’t changed a bit.

When we look to the next twenty years, what will the industry look like? And where will we fit in? Or should we be asking ourselves: In the age of social media and influencer marketing, when many of our clients are millennials looking for full-stack professionals, are we still relevant? And where do we go from here?
Three years ago, in my previous presentation called "Diversify or Specialize: A Guide to Becoming Untouchable," I discussed two possible strategies for coping with dwindling workloads. In this sequel, I will elaborate on the 'untouchable' part, suggesting it is high time we stop thinking outside the box and realize there is no box, and that we must bring back the free in FREElance.
