Corporate culture coaching
Too often communication breaks down because of misunderstanding due to differences in cultures. Japanese and American cultures are distinctly different and having a clear understanding of the differences specific to communication style can vastly improve team building, work efficiency and the drive for outcome. Let us help you build a corporate culture based on mutual understanding.

Choosing the right mode of interpretation for your success
There are 3 modes of interpreting you may choose from, simultaneous interpretation, consecutive interpretation and whispering interpretation. The best mode of interpreting for YOU depends on your specific needs, your set up and your goals.
Simultaneous Interpreting
Simultaneous Interpreting is the mode of oral translation from one language into the other in REAL TIME. The interpreter speaks at the same time as the speaker, instantly converting what the speaker is saying into the other language. This requires a high level of concentration and skill. It is considered the most time efficient and smooth form of interpreting. Most often used in large conferences and meetings, equipment is required.
Consecutive Interpreting
Consecutive Interpreting is where the speaker will speak a few sentences while the interpreter takes notes. Then the interpreter speaks when the speaker pauses. Considered the most accurate form of interpreting however time consuming. Often used in business meetings. Does not require interpreting equipment.
Whispering Mode Interpreting
Whispering mode interpreting is a form of simultaneous interpretation. The interpreter communicates what the speaker is saying in REAL TIME however, instead of speaking to all audience members, the interpreter is only speaking to 1-3 members within the larger audience. The interpreter sits directly behind the members that require interpreting and literally “whispers” the interpretation into the ears of the listeners. This mode is used when only a few members within a meeting require interpreting. For example the majority in the meeting speak English but only 2 members speak only Japanese. The interpreter will sit behind those 2 Japanese speakers and whisper the Japanese translation into the ears of the 2 listeners while the meeting goes on in English.
