*LINGUIST List*
Anna Marie Trester's new book is more than a career guide for
linguists. From an abundance of stories by professionals at various
stages in their careers, she identifies the skills that trained
linguists bring to fields as diverse as healthcare, branding or
technology. Suggestions for reflective tasks help readers apply the
stories to their own career trajectories, which may be anything but
linear. Trester can look back on many years of experience in
research and coaching, and her story is well worth listening
to.
