A Free Hands-on Workshop for Localization Leaders

Learn to apply STEP and SWOT methods to develop goals and 2026 roadmaps. Clear goals give direction to the team members and establish Localization value for top-level stakeholders.
90 minutes

Apply engineering-based SWOT and STEP models to localization. Build a strategy that functions effectively during rapid AI shifts and unpredictable priority changes.
Audit your 2026 goals during the session. Identify structural gaps in your current roadmap and fix them using peer feedback and Tamara’s frameworks.
Shift from a "service provider" mindset to a "strategic owner." Learn to articulate localization value in terms that secure executive buy-in and budget.
Get direct access to proprietary worksheets and planning templates. Use these assets to standardize your decision-making process long after the workshop ends.
Learn to evaluate your 2026 objectives for fragility and rebuild them to be more resilient against industry changes. Stop relying on SMART goals that break when priorities shift.
Use Tamara’s engineering-led "twists" on SWOT and STEP models to analyze your organization's environment and position the localization team.
Learn to convert your roadmap into specific ownership zones so you can influence stakeholders and secure executive buy-in.
You will receive the worksheets and templates used during the session. Use these assets to run a planning exercise.
Apply SWOT and STEP methods with specific engineering-led "twists" to analyze and make sense of the current localization landscape.
Evaluate your 2026 objectives to identify their fragility and rebuild them into resilient goals that withstand rapid industry changes.
Engage in hands-on exercises focused on process mapping, identifying inefficiencies, and applying fundamental problem-solving techniques.
