Welcome to The Language Dimension!

PLANNING

Whether for a meeting lasting 3 hours or 3 days, or a team task spanning 3 months or longer, language problems have the potential to undermine significant investment in time and money.

We provide advice and support for event organisers, concerning:


  • Venue: optimum room size, layout, seating and equipment
  • Optimum solution for handling language requirements: bilingual facilitators or trainers; or interpreters
  • Design of the event and selection of appropriate professionals to achieve desired objectives
  • Scheduling of production/translation of documentation and presentations ('Print and Go')
  • How to plan in detail and run the process of the meeting (e.g. slower than a monolingual group)

Our input during planning ensures:

  • Increased awareness of the impact of language issues on a successful outcome and how to manage them
  • Reduced misunderstandings about language requirements
  • No late surprises in the budget caused by unforeseen language-related costs
  • Planned pacing of a meeting, permitting efficient use of time and contributions from a multi-language group
