Gabriel opened the keynote at LocWorld56 in Vancouver with the story of his father: a metal trader who dictated his emails in 2003, and who became a translator at 80. I wrote on LinkedIn about what it was like to hear it from the stage, and the whole talk is in the post.

If it moves you the way it moved me, say so there. A comment or a share on LinkedIn carries the story further than it would here. And I would love your take on the question at the end: our role in translation, and the one metric in business nobody measures, emotion.
