Fostering Effective Teamwork in Interpretation Settings
For many interpreters, working in a team of Deaf and Hearing interpreters is not something we’re trained for. When it works well, outcomes are improved for all clients. In this webinar we look at what each professional needs and how to work in a collaborative way to meet those needs and provide an optimal service for our clients. We’ll examine best practices for communication and coordination, as well as practical considerations and coping strategies applicable to different domains.

How do we navigate differences with colleagues while maintaining respect and professionalism? And how can clear boundaries help us reduce the risk of horizontal violence in the workplace?
In this two-hour webinar, Dr Wendy McIntosh PhD will explore the importance of collegial boundaries and professional authority, and how they can create safer, healthier working relationships. You’ll reflect on the costs of horizontal violence, consider why boundary transgressions occur, and gain practical strategies for holding your ground, approaching difficult conversations, and fostering a more supportive professional environment.

This 2 part webinar will take you through several topics related to both neurodiversity and neurodivergency in part 1. Part 2 will discuss the differences in communication styles in mixed neurotype groups and allow you to examine how our own internal biases can influence our perception of events. This theory will be applied to our working as interpreters with our colleagues and clients.

*This workshop is suitable for those who have attended the previous introductory workshop, or who already have a sound theoretical knowledge of neurodiversity. You can view the introductory webinar, which is also interpreted here*
Research shows that in mixed neurotype groups, communication is increasingly likely to break down, with participants experiencing more challenging relational dynamics. During this workshop, you will be encouraged to examine your own relational style, and how that intersects with others – your clients and your coworkers
This workshop will build on some of the concepts presented in ‘An introduction to… A Neurodivergent Perspective’, thinking in more depth about executive functions and sensory processing; with a specific focus on interoceptive awareness – the sense related to understanding our thoughts and feelings. I will also introduce you to some of the social and cultural differences in neurodivergent communication styles, before using this knowledge as a basis for discussing our own internal biases and how they can influence our perception of events.
