What Makes a Great Interpreter?
We are all interpreters. Whether it is in your title or not, if you work in parks, you are an interpreter. Margot Carlock, Executive Director of National Association for Interpretation, joins the Park Leaders Show to talk about what makes a great interpreter. The National Association for Interpretation represents individuals from parks, zoos, aquariums, theme parks, museums, and more. What is similar to interpreters in all of these fields? Margot explains it is "A sincere interest and passion for working with the public" and "A commitment to provoke action." In this episode, you will find out what the National Association for Interpretation does, what interpretation is, and what makes a great interpreter. Margot also explains how park visitors are changing and what that means for interpretation.
