Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

Role, role, role, what is role?
We debate, discuss, argue, manipulate, sneer and roll our eyes at the topic of the Interpreter's Role. Knowing what our role is helps us define the principles by which we make professional and ethical decisions as an interpreter.
I now discuss the possibility that we no longer need to debate it. We can move on. We have a role right in front of us and we have the tools to analyze it now. What are you waiting for? Roll up, roll up, roll up, our role is here!
