See you in 2017!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Harriet: Good Morning Alessandro. In 2016, an important year for&nbsp;Intrawelt, what would you say have been your highlights?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Alessandro:<\/strong> The business has grown in 2016 and there have been some significant events, such as the confirmation of framework agreements with high profile clients which shows us that we&#8217;re on the right track, instilling trust and motivation within the whole group.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">H: What&#8217;s been you greatest challenge this year?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> The biggest challenge is always the next project we have to do that we still know nothing about! Every client and every project presents a challenge; in terms of timing, management, the high levels of specialisation involved and so on. If, on one hand the nature of the work wears you out mentally with the continuous excitement and tension that it generates and the extreme stress it puts you under, on the other hand it increases our resilience and the professionalism with which we tackle each day of work, weekends included!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">H: What do you look for in your employees? And in clients?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> The majority of our employees have grown with us and over the years they take on our policies and our <em>modus operandi<\/em>. As a joke, we have coined the term &#8216;<em>intraweltian&#8217;<\/em>: is a type of alien-linguist that flies through the \u0093word-universe\u0094. Joking aside, I think I share a similar vision of work with the Japanese and I would like my employees to believe in this vision too, I&#8217;d like them to see the company as an integral part of their lives (and in reality a lot of them do!), but I know that that\u0092s asking too much. From clients, I ask for loyalty and a win-win relationship, once this is established we&#8217;ll do anything to meet their demands.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">H: How have work methods changed within the company with the arrival of new technology?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> In 25 years I&#8217;ve seen an incredible evolution in our profession and I\u0092ve noticed that only those who have adapted and accepted the new technology, combining it with their linguistic skills (which are essential) have been able to successfully remain in business. Technology will always help, but the expertise of a linguist will remain vital in order to apply the tools that become more powerful every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">H: Among the achievements and goals you\u0092ve reached, which are you most proud of?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> Our client portfolio is one of the feathers in our cap, a sign of our reputation within the industry (which at times even surprises me!) and I&#8217;m very proud of our group of colleagues, from the sales team, the project managers and IT managers, to those in charge of administration, that make all of this possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">H: And what are your hopes for 2017?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>A:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span>I hope to continue down the path set out in 2016, to introduce new job roles within the team and to strengthen it in various ways, and increase our visibility abroad.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>H: If you had to choose three words to describe yourself, in any language, which would you choose and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong> I&#8217;d choose Italian because it\u0092s my mother tongue, even though at times it&#8217;s flawed due to being such a traveller; but I have a profound respect for my language and my country. If I had to choose three adjectives to define myself, I&#8217;d say pragmatic, resilient and determined; although some might say laid-back, lucky and stubborn! But that\u0092s just the haters; it\u0092s a well known fact that fortune favours the bold!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1007 size-full\" title=\"Intrawelt Translations\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.intrawelt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/small.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"595\"><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alessandro Potalivo,&nbsp;CEO of Intrawelt,&nbsp;takes care of the admin and management of personnel and connects the various parts of the Company.
