As a ‘double minority’ in the United States and an underrepresented force in higher authority positions throughout the globe, Asian women have yet to bring their full value into the workplace. In order to advance them, organizations need to understand the unique needs and subtle cultural differences among women and connect them with opportunities to make an impact. What are organizations doing to tap into the unique traits that women leaders bring? Hear from forward thinking women and learn what they are doing to advance their careers to their full potential.
In this session, Asian women leaders on the front lines will share their experience, discuss how they’ve developed inside their organizations, and share what organizations need to do to prepare women for next-generation leadership opportunities.
