Managing In Two Cultures

A Panoltia Audio Production

 (approximate running time 120 minutes)

The terms Hispanic and Latino refer to people who were born in the Spanish-speaking countries of the world.

Like any other population, they share many common characteristics, values, traditions, and customs that make them unique as a group. 

Many of the things that make Hispanics unique are the very things that create the differences between us that we, and they, struggle to cope with in the workplace.

As employers it is important for us to understand these differences and how to deal with them effectively. Only then can we bridge the gap between our two cultures and work together productively. 

Managing In Two Cultures will teach you:

• Why many Hispanic workers consider personal initiative, innovation and creativity on the job as signs of disrespect to the manager or supervisor.

• How Hispanics respond to American style coaching, and why it might be costing you some of your best employees. 

• What motivates a Hispanic worker to be productive and loyal to an employer.

• How Hispanics view and carry out work instructions and responsibility.

• The fundamental differences between Latin American educational methods and ours, and how those differences affect you and your Hispanic employees.

• Why the American style of communication is seen as crude and aggressive to some Hispanic workers, and how it affects their work.

• Why many Hispanics look at the whole concept of time differently than most Americans do, and how to deal with the difference in the workplace.

• Why Hispanic workers virtually always say they understand you and agree with you – even when they don’t!

• Why Hispanics feel the American workplace lacks emotion and personal sensitivity, and how it affects their productivity and motivation.

• Why it’s critical for you to understand the importance of home and family to your Hispanic employee.
