For Claudia Taylor, job success is built on bridging culture gaps. The senior business operations manager for PAE’s Global Mission Services division knows when she’s dealing with a workforce based outside of the continental United States, recognizing local customs is the foundation of a productive, effective team.

“It’s always a great thing to see how U.S. companies like PAE learn to adapt and include those different cultures and grow,” she said. “It makes it a great company. Having a diverse workforce makes great business and ethical sense.”
