| Zusammenfassung: | In recent years, technological progress and in particular the advent of neural machine translation has changed the landscape of professional translation. To stay competitive and performing in a changing profession, language mediators are required to keep up with technological developments and to adapt to new emerging competence profiles. Emotions have been shown to influence translators’ cognitive processes and performance (Hubscher-Davidson 2016; Lehr 2011, 2014; Rojo 2017), and emotional competences are considered to be an important factor in the translation workplace and for job satisfaction (Hubscher-Davidson 2017). This paper explores how emotion can help translators and language mediators more generally to meet the challenges of a changing profession in the present and in the future. With advances in language-related artificial intelligence, uniquely human capacities, such as understanding and expressing the complexity of emotion, will become increasingly important and should be given more attention in training. Also, emotion can help us to better understand the impact of change processes and to enhance the skills that are required for successfully dealing with change, such as adaptability and optimism. Finally, dimensions of emotion, such as control, can help us to approach interactions with machines and tools in a way that increases positive feelings, enjoyment and perceived autonomy. Those largely determine how people respond to the challenges they face and if they are able to stay motivated and productive in the long-term. Implications of the above aspects for competence profiles, training and continuing education in the language industry are discussed. |
