From September 15 to October 15 each year, Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the histories, cultures, and contributions of ancestors from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. At KnowBe4, we are committed to fostering a workplace culture that embraces diversity and inclusion, where all Knowsters can thrive. In today's blog, we hear from several Knowsters on why they are passionate about the "VAMOS!" employee resource group and how it contributes to creating a fun and welcoming workplace.
“Before starting my role at KnowBe4, I knew this was somewhere I wanted to be not only because of how much diversity is valued but also because I deeply appreciated the opportunity to connect and celebrate my heritage with other members of the Hispanic community through VAMOS! ERG. This has been somewhere that we can connect on shared experiences and support each other in big ways that make a difference. I love being part of this community and all the fun, support, and inclusion it provides..”
-Claudia, People Operations Coordinator
"As Hispanic Heritage Month unfolds, I pause to reflect on the immense support I have received throughout my journey at KnowBe4. From colleagues who wholeheartedly embrace diversity to company initiatives that actively foster inclusivity, I am truly grateful to be part of an environment that values and uplifts the Hispanic community. As someone with Cuban and Guatemalan roots, I take immense pride in celebrating my mixed heritage. It is a beautiful blend of cultures."

Through VAMOS!, I've had the privilege of meeting colleagues with similar backgrounds and have created a sense of community and mutual support within the company. VAMOS! events and initiatives have celebrated our heritage and provided professional development opportunities, contributing to my growth within the company.
