Managing Translation Services looks at how to successfully make the change from being a single freelance translator to developing a translation company offering a range of value added services. The book is intended principally for those who presently work as a freelance translator with all the inherent limitations this presents in terms of income and being reliant on the limited range of skills that the individual can offer. While some business skills will have been accumulated by virtue of working in a commercial environment, the transition from being responsible for oneself and taking the bold step of employing additional resources can be quite daunting. However, the opportunities this offers in terms of income and personal satisfaction are considerable. This book considers the initial Ssteps towards business development, exploiting these opportunities and the rewards they can offer. Advice is given on setting up a translation business, organisational development, what a business plan needs to consider for successful growth, how quality management needs to be approached, managing human resources, customer relations and other topics. The book provides a wealth of ready-made examples of quality procedures, forms that support business management and sources of further information. It also considers an exit strategy and related long-term planning when disposing of the business. Managing Translation Services is based on the many years of experience gained by the author working as a staff translator, freelance translator, university lecturer in translation studies, and former head of an award-winning, ISO 9001 accredited company. As a result, it covers a range of management issues relating to providing professional translation services. 410 0$aTopics in translation ;$v32. 606 $aTranslating services 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTranslating services. 676 $a418/.020285 700 $aSamuelsson-Brown$b Geoffrey$f1940-$0131074 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450981603321 996 $aManaging translation services$92448791 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03518nam 22005411 450 001 9910822067403321 005 20240513150339.0 010 $a1-4739-0981-3 010 $a0-85725-814-1 035 $a(CKB)4100000011612781 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6408508 035 $a(OCoLC)1227878681 035 $a(CaToSAGE)SAGE000011227 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011612781 100 $a20201215d2008 fy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aNew directions in social work practice /$fKieron Hatton 205 $a2nd edition. 210 1$a55 City Road :$cSAGE | Learning Matters,$d2008. 215 $a1 online resource (212 pages) $cillustrations 225 1 $aTransforming social work practice series 300 $aPrevious ed.: 2008. 311 $a0-85725-813-3 311 $a0-85725-876-1 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aCover -- Contents -- Series editors' Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- 1 - A framework for understanding contemporary social work -- 2 - Social work, community work and social change -- 3 - Squaring the circle - from the individual to the collective? -- 4 - The voluntary and independent sectors: Communitarianism, the 'Big Society' and the potential for social action -- 5 - Involving, integrating or ignoring?

Jonathan Parker, Series Editor Since the first edition of Kieron Hatton's important book outlining many of the New Directions facing social work a significant number of changes and challenges have continued to have a huge impact on contemporary social work practice in the UK. From the second Laming report and the subsequent work of the Social Work Task Force, Social Work Reform Board and The College of Social Work, to the Reclaiming Social Work agenda and Munro Review, the context within which social work is practice has continued to change and this new edition unpicks the challenges, opportunities and threats facing the social workers of today. This book re-establishes an important contribution to learning from which students, their service users and ultimately society should benefit. 410 0$aTransforming social work practice. 606 $aSocial service$zGreat Britain 606 $aSocial service$xGovernment policy$zGreat Britain 606 $aSocial service$zGreat Britain$vCase studies 615 0$aSocial service 615 0$aSocial service$xGovernment policy 615 0$aSocial service 676 $a361.320941 676 $a361.30941 700 $aHatton$b Kieron$01686254 801 0$bCaToSAGE 801 1$bCaToSAGE 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822067403321 996 $aNew directions in social work practice$94058956 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04201nam 22006015 450 001 9910377834003321 005 20250609111348.0 010 $a9783030363956 010 $a3030363953 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-36395-6 035 $a(CKB)4100000010473900 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6121706 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-36395-6 035 $a(Perlego)3480469 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6122064 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010473900 100 $a20200225d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aYoung Men Navigating Contemporary Masculinities /$fby Karla Elliott 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (217 pages) 225 1 $aGenders and Sexualities in the Social Sciences,$x2947-8790 311 08$a9783030363949 311 08$a3030363945 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $a1.

Conclusion. 330 $a"If masculinities are changing in the neoliberal era, where do we find the signs? Among young men, as Elliott shows in this intriguing study set in Germany and Australia. She shows the possibilities for greater openness in masculinities, especially at the social margins. But her interviews also show that privilege can be sustained, while fears of dependency and loss of authenticity remain." -Raewyn Connell, University of Sydney, Australia "Theoretically novel and conceptually sophisticated, Elliott is exemplary in her offering of a combination of sympathy and critical engagement. This text provides a genuinely meaningful advance for, and challenge to, the field, convincingly arguing it's very much time to move beyond the notion that privileged men are the vanguards of progressive change in respect of contemporary masculinities." - Steven Roberts, Monash University, Australia This book explores navigations of contemporary masculinities amongst young, advantaged men living in Australia and Germany. Taking an intersectional approach, the book argues that more open, egalitarian forms of masculinity, such as caring masculinities, are fostered by marginalised groups. Elliott investigates ways in which privileged men can move towards this openness alongside ongoing expressions of more traditional or regressive masculinity. Drawing on interviews, the book explores these navigations and the ways in which they are bound up with themes such as work, mobility, relationships, the privileges and pressures of masculinities, and the contradictions and difficulties of masculinities under neoliberalism. What is revealed is the need for change at individual, collective and structural levels, with care and openness amongst men as a means of achieving this change. Young Men Navigating Contemporary Masculinities will be of interest to students and scholars in fields such as sociology, gender studies, critical studies on men and masculinities, and cultural studies.
