Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to help leaders build more positive interactions with their Spanish-speaking team members. Misunderstandings occur even when we speak the same language. How much more so when the employees speak a different language? Yet, despite the language limitations, there is much the leader can do to forge more profound, productive connections with Spanish-speaking employees. By gaining a deeper insight into the culturally diverse workplace, the team leader will learn to reduce communication errors, manage conflict issues and improve employee morale. The book deals with a wide area of ongoing concerns that affect management and Spanish-speaking employees. Over the last 33 years as a bilingual facilitator, I've addressed the most common "pain points" such as favoritism, aggressive behaviors, civility, and respect. I've also offered practical solutions that you can apply. I wish you much success as you develop the skills to effectively address these problem areas and build positive interactions with your Spanish-speaking employees.
