Explore the importance of Hispanic representation in our community in this episode of the Inspiring Wholeness podcast.
Orange County is around 30% Hispanic and in other surrounding counties that number is higher, according to Pedro Turushina, president and CEO of the Hispanic Chamber of Metro Orlando. Yet less than 5% of the decision-making positions are held by Hispanic leaders. There’s a big gap to help elevate those businesses and professionals to the next level.
In this episode of the Inspiring Wholeness podcast, Turushina joins AdventHealth’s Dr. Luis Isea to share their own career journeys and the importance of Hispanic representation in Central Florida.
