S01E18: Business Management for LSC Executives

The Translation Company Talk

Management is an art and a skill, and not many people in the language industry have received formal schooling in this area. While every human being has some management skills as they manage their life and work, managing a language company is somewhat complicated. Richard Brooks from K-International, talks about what management actually entails in this industry and what type of a mindset you need to successfully manage a dynamic team. Given the true international nature of our industry, managing a business touches on so many different things.

In particular we touch upon the core functions of a language business which includes production, resource management and business development as well as supporting auxiliary functions like administration, accounting, strategy building and so on. This episode is a masterclass in management for language company owners and executives.
