Navigating Change: Personal Transformation and Professional Identity in Interpreting

Activity: External performance, talk or presentation › Talk for a mainly non-academic audience (e.g. for the general public, community or industry)

Description

The Together Conference is a live event held annually online underpinned by the premise that 'progress happens when knowledge is shared widely'. I presented at the 2025 conference talking about the intersection of professional identity and personal transformation, exploring how change impacts interpreters' understanding of themselves and their work. Drawing on insights from academic research and professional practice, the session addressed the challenges of reconciling evolving personal circumstances with long-held professional roles in an industry that presents itself as responsible for accessibility and stability.
