Strengths in Action: Staying Grounded While Speaking for Others

Session Overview
Interpreting often places us at the centre of complex, emotionally charged situations—supporting others while managing our own responses in real time. This session explores how your personal strengths can act as powerful internal resources to help you stay steady, connected, and resilient.

We’ll look at how identifying and using your strengths can bring greater balance and self-awareness to your work, and how recognising strengths in others can shift the energy of a room, support rapport-building, and create more collaborative interactions.

Whether you’re looking to strengthen your resilience or simply reconnect with what keeps you grounded, this session offers space for reflection, insight, and practical tools you can use straight away.
