Interpreter's Workshop with Tim Curry

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

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!

Send me a Text Message here. Will you look at THAT! Can you believe it?! Looks aren't everything, but they help us deduce who people are, what they may think, and how they communicate. As sign language interpreters we often have to be "judgmental" of who people are to help us understand what they mean. Is that good? How do we do that? Let's look beneath the mask of impartiality and see what we really think and do. IW Community A great place to meet regularly to laugh, learn, and lean on each other.
