Ep 44 Navigating American Tech Culture as a Brazilian [Interview with Juliano Forti, Senior Solutions Architect]

In this episode, I am joined by a special guest, Juliano Forti. He shares his experience as a Brazilian working in tech in the U.S. - from communicating effectively to culture shocks. About Juliano's Journey When Juliano received devastating feedback from his manager about his lack of clarity, he knew something had to change. His accent was holding him back, but it was more than just pronunciation—it was impacting his confidence and career prospects. That’s when Juliano turned to me for help. We started by targeting the high-frequency words he used daily, refining his pronunciation. But I quickly identified that the key to his success wasn’t just in speaking clearly—it was in transforming his overall communication skills. Through focused training on confidence-building, strategic storytelling, and diplomatic communication, Juliano not only mastered clarity but also unlocked his full potential. The result? He landed his dream job at a top company, proving that when you communicate with confidence, the possibilities are endless. 👉 Learn more about my Leadership Communication Accelerator here: ⁠https://tanniasuarez.com/leadership. 👉 Connect with Juliano here: LinkedIn.com/in/julianoforti/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leadershipenglish/support
