Managing workplace social and political tensions is a top concern for executives. At El Puente Institute, we equip Latino leaders with the skills to navigate identity, advocacy, and workplace culture while fostering environments where they can bring their full selves to work. According to the 2024 C-Suite IE&D Survey Report by Littler, 73% of executives say managing workplace social and political tensions is a major challenge. The solution? Investing in leadership that understands cultural inclusion, communication, and conflict resolution.
