Many of us working in the localisation industry live a long way from home and can't visit our families this Christmas. Since my native land is also the home of Santa Claus, I thought I'd write to him about it.

Sometimes I feel like Charlie Brown:
"Dear Agnes, I like your advice column. I feel that I could use some of your advice myself. I don't know, however, exactly what it is that I want to ask you. Just send me some advice."
~Charles M. Schulz, Peanuts, 1964

Time for review as online conferences continue. This week I’m attending the GALA Connected 2020 event in the Pacific Daylight Time zone.

The smaller the boat, the more it matters who’s with you in it. After four years of writing a blog called Director’s Cut, this is the first time I address the topic of being a company director #boardofdirectors #corporategovernance #directorslife bit.ly/dc-whos-on-board
The first virtual conference must be both unnerving and exciting for the organisers with all the new data they get on attendee behaviour. Here are my thoughts on the #CustomerExperience side after Day 1 of #LocWorldWide42 #l10n #IamLWW linkedin.com/pulse/world-you…
Are you a software engineer who has been tasked with globalizing the product you helped create? Or a language professional working with such devs? Read this guide for tips on how to understand each other and have a successful localization journey.
🌍 If you’re a #dev, there’s a lot to consider when it comes to localising your #app. Language affects everything, from engineering to how your #UXWriter team crafts your strings.
Here we go over a few of the most common stumbling blocks for devs👇

Sandberg. More than your Translation Partners.
For 25 years, Sandberg Translation Partners Ltd has been known as STP. We have been one of the many, MANY three-letter acronyms in the language industry. As of today, there will be one less since we will be known as Sandberg.
✨Today we launch our new #brandidentity. We’ve got a shiny new logo and an updated name – just call us Sandberg.
Read the story of how our new identity came about in our latest blog post 👇

Good #forecasters need at least two qualities: to be able to spot #patterns and to see past their own biases. Here are my thoughts on current language industry #trends and what I intend to do about them in 2020.
In her latest DC, @anucarnegie tackles two patterns in the #languageindustry for 2020: LSPs’ acquisition of media and #marketing companies, and the growing gap between university #translation courses and the skills needs of the industry.

The fridge has been leaking water on the floor for weeks. Cause: the defrost drain blocked by a beautiful baby tomato which I had taken to be part of the furniture #DIY #domesticgenius

We hit our overall target of £750 much sooner than planned, so it’s only fair that we share our final video with you early too. So here’s Anu with The Winner Takes It All! 🏆🎶🎤 youtu.be/vqb-Lo5TyVE
Thank you to everyone who donated!

This doesn't come easy, even for a professionally and socially confident man. :) Some language industry friends have told me that this campaign could never be done in their company, or country. Thank you for playing ball, Jesper! #fundraising
Incredibly, we managed to smash both our £500 milestone and £750 overall target in the same week! ENORMOUS thanks to everyone! 🙏
So here’s the man behind STP’s name, Jesper Sandberg himself, singing Rock Me. Enjoy! 🎤🇸🇪 youtu.be/h7ibt3NlMhM
