1. Hispanics are the largest minority in the nation. What do you think this means to corporate America? How should corporate America respond to this changing demographic?
Corporate America realizes it has to retool its research and development department to reach the expanding Hispanic market in the United States. To do this, they have to also study the buying patterns in their respective home country.
2. What role do you think HACR should have in representing the Hispanic community with corporate America?
HACR must continue to be the bridge between corporate America and the Hispanic community utilizing the existing planks and perhaps refining the planks to meet the changing vernacular.
3. Do you think that corporate America is aware what advocacy organizations such as HACR or others do to promote inclusion and corporate responsibility?
Only a very few corporations are on board with HACR and the coalition it represents; HACR has to develop a better marketing approach to reach the larger pool of corporations.
4. HACR is celebrating its 20th Anniversary. What would you like to see for the next 20 years of the organization?
I would hope to see the day that HACR is no longer needed and corporations fully accept that inclusion is in their best business interest.
5. What is the business case for corporate responsibility or inclusion as its relates to employment opportunities?
There is no need to outsource America's future when we have the human resources and the market opportunities right in our own back yard.
