Atolls

We recently wrapped up an amazing company fest in Barcelona, where over 850 Atollians came together for learning, connection, and celebration. Two standout sessions focused on embracing our unique identities and fostering cultural sensitivity in the workplace.

✨ Karla Maryed Blanco Rodriguez kicked things off with her inspiring talk, “Embracing My Unique Identity,” which explored the importance of staying true to ourselves. Karla reminded us that authenticity is key—not just for personal growth but for building trust and stronger relationships. She guided us through how self-awareness can lead to more genuine connections at work, encouraging us to reflect on our values, strengths, and even our quirks. Karla also shared some practical tools like journaling and mindfulness to help us all discover our true selves. It was a great reminder that when we show up as our authentic selves, we create a more trusting, open, and supportive environment. 🧠💡

🌍 Edson Chilundo followed up with a thought-provoking session on “The Importance of Cultural Sensitivity.” Edson spoke about how language—especially English—can both unite and divide us in ways we may not always realize. He emphasized how accents, cultural backgrounds, and even the way we dress can shape our workplace experiences. Edson’s message was clear: we need to approach these differences with empathy and understanding, ensuring that everyone feels seen, valued, and supported. His session was a powerful reminder that true inclusion means being mindful of the (hidden) diverse experiences that shape each one of us. 💬

At Atolls, these conversations aren’t just checkboxes—we believe that embracing individuality and fostering cultural sensitivity are at the heart of creating an inclusive, empowered workplace. It’s all about building a space where every Atollian can thrive and feel a true sense of belonging.
Big thanks to Karla and Edson for leading these essential discussions! 🚀
