Aligning Localization with your Corporate Strategy: Driving Maximum Program Results

Available on-demand

As companies strive to be more competitive on the global stage, it is critical that your localization program reflects the corporate mission and aligns to meet your company goals. Given today’s complex landscape, including multiple markets, numerous global constituents, technology and limited budgets, how do you ensure that your program is as contemporary as it needs to be? Are your overarching activities on track? Understanding your priority markets is key, along with communication across geographies and functions, like Marketing, Product and Customer Support. So, what does it take to effectively communicate and serve your internal customers? Ultimately, how do you measure success, and pivot as necessary?

While every company differs in terms of their localization program maturity, can you relate? Join us for the sixth episode of our virtual knowledge series! We will host three localization thought leaders Jane Faraola from Cisco; Michelle Waddle from Rockwell Automation; and Milene Cervo from Precisely to share their perspectives and guidance based on their careers dedicated to the localization practice. Bring your questions, participate in the discussion, and leave feeling inspired!
