English term

is shy away from a challenge...

Non-PRO English to Spanish Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) Airline business industry.
I would like to know the best translation of this phrase from British English into European Spanish.

It's a translation about the airline business industry for Spaniards and Americans readers.

Colleagues from Latin America, feel free to send me your suggestions as well.

Here is the full paragraph for your review:

- And XXXXXXX, our Head of Vision Care.

o Hello

One thing we won’t do here in the UK is shy away from a challenge: and whilst we faced some adversity in the last year, the one thing I am really proud of this Team for, is their resilience and their fighting spirit.

We have the most exciting opportunity ahead of us.

We have a fresh outlook and the opportunity to take absolutely everything back to basics

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (3): Pablo Cruz, Toni Castano, Beatriz Ramírez de Haro

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

es rehuir/rechazar un reto/desafio

Hay varios opciones, y por eso he incluido dos aquí, aunque hay mas:

Una cosa que no hacemos aquí en el Reino Unido es rehuir/evitar/rechazar un reto/desafio: y aunque el año pasado nos enfrentamos a algunas adversidades, de lo que estoy realmente orgulloso de este equipo es de su resistencia y su espíritu de lucha.
