In every industry, from healthcare to manufacturing from global trade to finance, working professionals increasingly need to interact with people from other ethnic and national groups, in the workplace and around the world. This interaction involves coming in close contact with people from other cultures whose native language is not English or who speak another English dialect. In South Florida, whether you are an HR manager, company owner, or management consultant understanding the increasing cultural and linguistic diversity beyond the Hispanic mix will ensure the success of your communication, actualize the global opportunities of diversity, and help achieve your organizational goals.
Join us for this enlightening and information panel discussion on uncovering the increasing cultural and linguistic diversity in the global workplace.
