R U Ready 4 Y

They are here! They are growing in numbers, and they are different than any set of employees the business world has ever seen. Generation Y, commonly known as the Millennials, are entering the workforce in droves and will soon dominate it. Leaders, for the most part, are not ready for the revolutionary changes that will be required to adapt and transform their organizations. With key insights into the Millennial mindset, “R U Ready 4 Y?” explains the new dynamics that Gen Y is introducing to the work environment and provides practical strategies for business leaders to ensure their companies are ready for Generation Y. With over five decades of combined global experience in business process outsourcing, learning development, human capital management and leadership, this trio of authors advances a compelling perspective on the impacts Gen Y will have on the future of the workplace.

This book examines audiovisual translation (AVT) practices that fall outside conventional AVT norms, drawing on work from relevance theory to highlight alternative perspectives and make the case for a multidisciplinary approach to AVT. The volume focuses on creative subtitling – otherwise known as 'text-on-screen' – through the lens of relevance theory, a cognitively grounded theory of communication. Sasamoto explores the ways in which a relevance theoretic approach can provide an analytical framework for a better understanding of the interaction between 'text-on-screen' and viewers' interpretation processes and, in turn, how media producers, professional or otherwise, use 'text-on-screen' to engage viewers in innovative ways. The volume looks at such forms as telop, creative text use on screen, and forms of user-generated text-on-screen. The book introduces a new dimension to work on cognative pragmatics and the wider applications of relevance theory in multimodal communication and AVT, making it of interest to scholars in these disciplines.
