Do you employ Hispanics? Then this new e-newsletter is for you!
In an effort to better serve those who employ Hispanics on their dairy farms, I will begin sending out a quarterly newsletter starting this June. I will continue to cover topics that help you successfully manage your Hispanic employees including:
- Strategies to address cultural concerns
- Ideas for team building across cultures
- Immigration reform updates
- Tips to help you and your employees with language learning
- Dairy articles in Spanish and English to help your employees learn the why of everyday tasks
- Management strategies that work for other dairymen
What subjects would you like to see explored in this newsletter? My goal is to provide you with information that is relevant and useful to you, so please share your needs and interests with me.
To receive this e-newsletter, please contact me, Libby Gaige, at geg24@cornell.edu or 607-793-4847. If you don't use email and are interested, let me know and we can get it to you in print.
