COMMUNICATION and TRANSLATION

One of the greatest difficulties in globalization and expanding business to the international level is communication and translation, both written and oral. Although for the most part translation of English, Spanish, Mandarin and French are common, many other languages still have to be addressed. Once translation of the languages near perfection, many dialects will need to be addressed.

Whether it is in conversational meetings or in writing, generally, translators are brought into the communication process. Many times translation goes astray because of interpretation and perception. One simple word can lead to a difference in perception, varying dramatically from what a message is intended to convey. When entering into business deals and contracts, it is imperative that the intended content is perceived and understood the same by all parties.

Whether it be text documents, oral speech, contracts and agreements, chat, websites or emails, ICOBP is looking to maintain the highest of quality in the content translation through these communication mediums and the many more we will encounter in the futrure for its members.

ICOBP is working with several technology groups who will be supportive and helpful to its members for enhancement of the communication process. These technology firms may become sponsors, affiliates or joint venture partners with ICOBP.
