The Necessity And Importance Of Management In Team Translation

Nowadays, team translation has been used as a way of translation more often than ever before. But since professional translation has just started to rise as a new subject in China, few studies have been done on the management of team translation. This thesis paper is an empirical summary of all the team translations I have done. I take two translation exercises (a failure case and a successful one) as examples and apply theories of team management and project management as guiding principles, thus proving the necessity and importance of management in team translation.
