In today’s globalized economy, maximizing communication is a prominent issue which many businesses are faced with. In order to be successful and properly communicate with partners, vendors and employees, business owners and executives must be able to overstep barriers caused by language restrictions. For this reason, businesses are increasingly turning to video and web conferencing to help connect with interpreter and transcription services, providing the tools needed to succeed in breaking down communication walls.
When the presence of an interpreter or translator is immediately needed, connecting through a video conference provides the same personal touch and results as physically being there. Here are 8 creative ways businesses are putting video and web conferencing to use as an interpreting tool:
- News and Media – By connecting with a translator through an online video meeting, journalists and reporters can interview sources in foreign areas without worrying about language restrictions.
- Judicial and Law – Virtual interpreters and translators in the judicial and law industry can provide help with communication between parties who may have difficulty interacting with each other due to limited language proficiency. These services can be used in attorney-client meetings, preliminary hearings, arraignments, depositions, and trials.
- Medical and Healthcare – Interpreters in the medical and healthcare industry help patients who are challenged by language barriers communicate with doctors, nurses, and other medical staff. Whether repeating what the doctor is saying or translating medical information, video interpreters help provide their clients with a way to be more informed about their health.
- Accommodation resources – Sign-language interpreters facilitate communication between people who are deaf or hard of hearing and people who can hear. Interpreter services can now use video and web conferencing to communicate with those who are hearing impaired. This works especially well in a classroom setting where interpreters act as an advocate for students, staff and parents, giving equal access to education for everyone.
- Conference services – Business conferences attract attendees from all over the world. During an informational session, international attendees don’t need to be handicapped because they don’t understand what the speaker is saying. By virtually connecting with an interpreter or a translator, they can fully benefit from what the speaker is saying.
- Guide or travel services – While on a business trip in a foreign area, professionals can connect with a translator or interpreter through their computer. Doing this ensures that communication between all parties is understood.
- Business meetings – A business may be headquartered in the United States, but have satellite offices throughout the world. When important meetings are being held, companies can have language interpreters in the meeting remotely connecting with attendees. This way everyone can stay on the same page.
- Sales localization services – It is hard to close a deal with a prospect who doesn’t understand a single word in the sales pitch. Through video conferencing, sales teams can use interpreters to translate their sales pitch, ultimately ending up with more sales and with more satisfied clients.
By eliminating language barriers that divide organizations, translation and interpretation services are increasingly using video and web conferencing services to help multi-national and international corporations build trusting business relationships without limitations.
