Hispanics are the fastest growing workforce in the United States and organizations must become more culturally proficient in support of their Hispanic employees, customers and overall business goals. To prepare for the seismic cultural demographic shift, market leaders know they must acquire Hispanic cultural intelligence and apply this know-how to embrace unique outcomes that diversity of thought can bring and to create new opportunities for competitive advantage.  Knowing how to best lead your Hispanic employees will give your organization a leg-up to recruit and retain top Hispanic talent -- while creating a workplace environment that maximizes their engagement, overall performance and workplace satisfaction.
