As any South Florida communicator knows, we work in a diverse market. But whether or not you are bilingual, you can still connect with multicultural customers. Join Juan Carlos Fanjul from CBS 12 as he moderates a discussion on multicultural communication. Panelists will share advice, resources – and maybe even cautionary tales – to help us expand our message to a more diverse audience. Come prepared with questions, and say “hola” to new opportunities to connect.
