Sol Trujillo wrote a Labor Day op-ed titled, “The ‘Latino Factor’ Will Save America’s Economy”. The article was published in the Wall Street Journal on August 29th and was peppered with data points about the real state of our workforce and why the country should be grateful that we have a Latino population who is poised to fill the void left by an aging baby boomer generation. If you know Sol like I do, you will recognize many of his talking points including his famous IQ test for CEOs. It should be noted that the both The Wall Street Journal and CNBC are media partners of L’ATTUTUDE. You can read Sol’s MOU here.

When we invited Gary Vaynerchuk to NAHREP at L’ATTITUDE in 2021, I was mostly relying on input from others. Several members loved his content, but the little I saw online left me underwhelmed.
