Traditionally revered cultures and customs of Asian Americans ironically tend to hold us back from being promoted to senior leadership positions. Deference, politeness and being soft-spoken can be interpreted as weakness in the workplace. How does one retain a proud Asian American identity and be effective in work cultures that may not value one’s culture? This highly interactive presentation will give participants knowledge and skills to succeed in today’s global economy.
