The phenomenal increase in the number of Hispanics in the United States between 1990 and 2000 caught even the most sophisticated demographers off guard. The exponential growth of Hispanics between 2000 and 2005 proved to be even more stunning than the previous decade. No one expected that in such a short time span the Hispanic population would rise at an even faster rate than before. Updated estimated population figures released in 2006 indicated that Hispanics accounted for one-half of the nation’s population increase. As America’s “new demographic bulge,” they will drive growth in the U.S. population and workforce as far out as statisticians can project. Keeping step with this growth in population size is the rising median income of Hispanics.

The combination of the escalating number of Hispanics and the unlimited market potential they represent for U.S. businesses is what led Francisco J. Valle, the founder of Valle Consulting, to refer to this phenomenon as “The Hispanic Gold Rush™.” All types of organizations have recognized the possibilities of this market and have made its penetration a key component of their strategic growth plans. These organizations have also recognized that learning to manage effectively a Hispanic workforce is an imperative given the country’s demographics as it is to increase its productivity.
