How Latinos Can Align with U.S. Corporate Values?

37% of tech jobs in the U.S. are held by international talent. Interesting, right? For Latinos understanding U.S. corporate culture is crucial. 

Learn how critical values like innovation, transparency, and diversity play out in American tech companies, and how you can align these with your cultural perspectives.

πŸ’‘ Getting Ahead by Taking Risks and Innovating

πŸ‘‰ Ask 'why' and 'what if' a lot.

Try out creative ways to solve problems, even if it's new to you. Taking a smart risk is usually better than playing it safe in the U.S. tech scene.

Changing up your approach like this can make a difference for Latin American pros working remotely for U.S. companies.

Making Transparency and Straight Talk Work for You πŸ’¬

A survey shows that 70% of U.S. managers want straight talk (Global Communication Report, 2023). That's different from the more roundabout style common in Latin America. 

πŸ“Œ Here's how to adapt: If you spot a problem, don't just hint at it. Say it. 

For example, instead of 'We might consider changing this,' try:

'Let's change this to improve results.'

And rather than 'This could be better,' go with:

'This part needs more work to meet our standards.'

Understanding Diversity and Inclusion πŸ’―

Did you know diverse tech teams are 35% more successful, according to McKinsey's 2023 report? As a Latin American in this field, you have much to offer.
