Today I'm joined by Chris Brown. He is the CTO and partner at Wow Remote Teams. They help US companies build high performing teams by tapping into Latin America's exceptional talent pool, driving growth while fostering cross-cultural collaboration. What began as a solution to the talent crunch has evolved into a movement, reshaping how businesses approach team building in a globalized world. Welcome to the show, Chris.Chris Brown: [00:00:43] Thank you, and thank you for having me on, Sara. It's a pleasure to be here.Sara Sheehan: [00:00:47] It is a pleasure to have some time with you. This is an extremely important topic. All businesses need access to talent, and some of us, namely myself, I'm extremely comfortable working with global teams. I'm extremely comfortable having an extension of my team being in another country, if not halfway around the world, just because I've done it so frequently. I'm super excited to have you here and to learn more about how you're serving clients, and especially the fact that you're working with clients of such varied sizes. You're making something accessible to a non-Fortune 100 business, which is wonderful. So talk with me a little bit about your business first, Wow Remote Teams, and what you're doing in the marketplace.Chris Brown: [00:01:57] We've been operating for almost five years now, and we do talent sourcing, staffing and recruiting primarily from Latin America.

We go through, we find exactly what your needs are, and we find talent that is very well skilled and very well qualified to match those needs for any given position. Basically anything that can be done remotely, we can find amazing talent for. The reason we do Latin America is that I have had many teams throughout the world. I've been in technology for 20 years now. I've run teams in the Philippines and in India and Eastern Europe, and I've done all the things with all the developers all over the place. Time zones and culture are always problematic. When you're working in the Philippines, somebody is working at two in the morning. It's either you or them. No matter which side it's on, that's never a pleasant experience, or it never was for me anyways. It obviously works, a lot of people do it. I've found that having Latin American talent brings a different kind of environment to remote work and to the nearshoring or offshoring situation.Chris Brown: [00:03:17] They're working the same hours as you, they're very culturally close to us, their English levels are very high because they're all watching American TV and taking in American movies and entertainment and everything. They're very skilled, of course, the universities in Latin America are incredibly good. There's universities ...
