Before we can identify ourselves as professional translators, interpreters, managers, administrators, professors, business owners or any other designation we may have, we are human beings with the same needs and wants.
We need to take care of ourselves, be happy and fulfilled to be able to do a good job and accomplish what we desire in life.
Because we understand the need to work on our personal development, we regularly promote personal empowerment events.

Multi-Languages Annual Conference
Speaker announcements
Every year we have one presentation at our conference that is not necessarily related to languages or language technologies. This year we have selected a fantastic speaker / neuroscientist who will share with us her research on Failure.
Failing With the Brain in Mind
Many of us are encouraged to succeed but we often ignore the role
failing plays in that success. Contrary to popular practice, failure is not something
we should avoid because failure helps us adjust and improve future outcomes.
The brain is naturally wired to detect errors and adjust accordingly and
therefore serves as a useful strategy for improving performance. This session
will introduce participants to the neuroscience of failure in order to help reframe
failure as natural and necessary as part of the process of learning and
succeeding.
Dr. Mandy Wintink, PhD is a Life Coach, Author, and CEO who
focuses on applying knowledge of the brain to life skills and personal
development. She earned her doctorate degree from Dalhousie University in
Neuroscience and Psychology in 2005 and then founded the Centre for Applied Neuroscience in 2010 where she trains people to become a life coach through
understanding neuroscience, psychology, yoga, meditation, and mindfulness. She
also teaches neuroscience and psychology as a faculty member at the University
of Guelph-Humber.
