How do I change my platform's language?

  • Click on your Profile icon at the bottom of the left-hand navigation menu

  • Click on My Account

  • Go to Settings

  • Select the desired language from the Platform Language drop-down list

  • Click on Save to confirm

👉 What is translated?

All the Holaspirit supplied text is translated. This includes menu items, core role names, tooltips and email notifications.

👉 What is not translated?

  • Onboarding Program for Holacracy Practitioners: the newsletter is available in English only.

  • Any content created by members while using Holaspirit remains in the language in which it was entered (such as a role's purpose, accountabilities, policies…) unless the Translation app is enabled.


How can I change my translation language?

👤 Admin must have activated the Translation app beforehand for this option to show up.

When the Translation app is enabled for your organization, you can choose the preferred language you need your role/circle content to be translated to.

The Purpose, Domains, and Accountabilities of roles/circles will be available in the language of your choice.

  • Click on your Profile Icon at the bottom of the left-hand navigation menu

  • Click on My Account

  • Click on the Settings section

  • In Translation language, select your preferred language from the drop-down list

  • Click on Save to confirm

You can decide to show the translated roles by default if you toggle the option to the right. All the roles/circles in your organization will be displayed in the selected language.

On the page of a role/circle, you can click on the icon in the top right corner of the page to show the role/circle translated.

In the example below, the English content is translated into German.

📌 Note: The icon is orange when the content has not been yet verified by a translator, blue when it has been verified.
