Guerrero also hosts Hispanic Executive’s podcast, The Latino Majority, where he engages in insightful conversations with influential Latino figures, furthering the discourse on Latino leadership and success. His commitment to fostering a strong Latino professional community is also evident as co-founder of The Alumni Society, an exclusive network focused on connecting and empowering Latino alumni from top universities. Additionally, he launched Guerrero Search, a specialized recruitment firm dedicated to placing Latino executives in high-impact roles, reflecting his dedication to helping Latinos advance and preparing companies for tomorrow’s Latino-driven economy.

Most recently, Guerrero embarked on a groundbreaking initiative by joining forces with other leading figures in professional sports, media, and marketing to establish LiS: Latinos in Sports. A new venture that aims to elevate the presence and influence of Latinos in the sports industry, through content, convenings, and career opportunities.
