Without a mentor, how do you expect to change and grow as a professional? That's where ATA's Mastermind Program comes in! Translators and interpreters often go into business understanding that finding and retaining clients will be hard work. What many fail to see, however, is the difficulty in running a business alone and not always knowing what to do next. ATA’s Mastermind Program offers peer-based mentoring designed to help you learn and develop professionally by working together in small groups to share knowledge on specific topics and work collaboratively to achieve your learning goals.   In this episode of the ATA Podcast, co-host Andie Ho interviews Dolores R. Guiñazú, a two-time participant in the Mastermind Program. Dolores details her experience in the program, the professional and networking benefits she’s acquired, and why ATA members should apply. As a free resource for ATA members, this episode has all the reasons why you should consider applying to be a mastermind!   Show Notes: New Special Interest Groups (SIGs): Financial Translators: https://www.atanet.org/special-groups/ft-sig-financial-translators/ Interpreters & Translators in Education: https://www.atanet.org/special-groups/ite-sig-interpreters-translators-in-education/ Southeast Asian Languages: https://www.atanet.org/special-groups/seal-sig-southeast-asian-languages/ ATA65 Call for Speakers: https://www.atanet.org/ata65/call-for-speakers Renew your ATA membership: https://www.atanet.org/member-center/renew E51: The New ATA Mastermind Program: https://www.atanet.org/podcast/e51-the-new-ata-mastermind-program Apply to the Mastermind Program: https://www.atanet.org/career-education/mentoring/mastermind-program The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles by Steven Pressfield: https://stevenpressfield.com/books/the-war-of-art   Join ATA: https://www.atanet.org/member-center/join-ata/ The ATA Podcast Archive: https://www.atanet.org/news/the-ata-podcast/ ATA Events Calendar: https://www.atanet.org/ata-events/ ATA Socials: https://linkin.bio/americantranslatorsassn    Please send comments, questions, or requests about this podcast to [email protected].
