    Hardback. Condition: Very Good. An essential career guide for every Asian American--and all their co-workers and managers--that explains how traditional Asian cultural values are at odds with Western corporate culture. Leading Asian American career coach and advocate Jane Hyun explains that the lack of Asian Americans in executive suite positions is brought about by a combination of Asian cultures and traditions strait-jacketing Asian Americans in the workplace, and how the group's lack of vocal affirmation in popular media and culture, afflicts them with a "perpetual foreigner syndrome" in the eyes of Americans who don't know enough to understand the challenges placed on Asian Americans in the corporate environment. Filled with anecdotes and case studies from her own consulting experience covering the gamut of Asian Americans from various backgrounds, the book discusses how being Asian affects the way they interact with colleagues, managers, and clients, and will offer advice and real world solutions while exposing the challenges encountered. For the Asian reader, the book will help them to see the cultural barriers they subconsciously place in their own career paths and how to overcome them. For the non-Asian reader, the book serves as a primer for promoting optimal working relationships with Asians, and will help start a dialogue that will benefit all. This essential guide offers a toolkit for navigating corporate America by exploring: Cultural Fluency: Learn how deeply rooted Confucian values--like respect for authority and self-control--can clash with Western workplace expectations, and how to bridge the gap without losing your identity. The Model Minority Myth: Uncover the dangers of the "model minority" stereotype and the "perpetual foreigner syndrome," and learn why these perceptions can hold you back despite your qualifications. Actionable Career Strategies: Master the unwritten rules of corporate America, from self-promotion and navigating office politics to acing performance reviews and negotiating your salary. Mentoring and Networking: Build a powerful network and find sponsors who will champion your career, with specific advice for overcoming cultural hesitation in forming these critical relationships. A Guide for Managers: For non-Asian leaders, discover how to unlock the full potential of your Asian American team members, foster an inclusive environment, and support their path to the executive suite.…

    Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A timely sequel with breakthrough strategies from Jane Hyun, the author of Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling, to help Asian Americans build their leadership and influence skills by embracing their cultural strengths and mapping an achievable career path. How can Asian Americans lead and influence in a way that feels culturally authentic? 19 years after her groundbreaking book, global leadership strategist Jane Hyun unveils Leadership Toolkit for Asians - a guide for Asian Americans to build their capacity to lead and influence with a blueprint that is achievable and culturally relevant. Asian Americans are the least likely demographic to be promoted or to have a mentor or sponsor- they make up 13% of the professional workforce, but less than 3% of executive positions. This dynamic hurts everyone, and the solution calls us to embrace our unique perspectives while organizations create a more fertile environment for growing Asian talent. This toolkit-based on Hyun's work with thousands of leaders-is filled with self-assessments, checklists, quizzes, and stories of Asian American leaders to help you put ideas into action. It will show you how to leverage your life experiences to craft a bespoke leadership journey. Assess: Identify your goals, cultural values and assets Equip: Navigate effectively with people who are different from you, push back against stereotypes, strengthen your networks, apply a developmental model to help you get there Transform: Create your own model and engage advocates as you put it into practice.…

    Paperback. Condition: Very Good. An essential career guide for every Asian American--and all their co-workers and managers--that explains how traditional Asian cultural values are at odds with Western corporate culture. Leading Asian American career coach and advocate Jane Hyun explains that the lack of Asian Americans in executive suite positions is brought about by a combination of Asian cultures and traditions strait-jacketing Asian Americans in the workplace, and how the group's lack of vocal affirmation in popular media and culture, afflicts them with a "perpetual foreigner syndrome" in the eyes of Americans who don't know enough to understand the challenges placed on Asian Americans in the corporate environment. Filled with anecdotes and case studies from her own consulting experience covering the gamut of Asian Americans from various backgrounds, the book discusses how being Asian affects the way they interact with colleagues, managers, and clients, and will offer advice and real world solutions while exposing the challenges encountered. For the Asian reader, the book will help them to see the cultural barriers they subconsciously place in their own career paths and how to overcome them. For the non-Asian reader, the book serves as a primer for promoting optimal working relationships with Asians, and will help start a dialogue that will benefit all. Why do so many qualified Asian Americans hit a "bamboo ceiling" in their careers, and what can you do to break through? Understand Cultural Differences: Learn why traditional Asian values like humility and respect for authority can be misinterpreted in Western corporate culture and how to bridge the gap. Debunk the Model Minority Myth: Move beyond the harmful stereotype that Asians "are doing just fine" and address the real, often invisible, barriers to career mobility. Master Self-Promotion: Discover practical techniques for "tooting your own horn" in a way that feels authentic and overcomes the cultural tendency toward self-effacement. Build Your Network: Learn the art of networking and mentorship to gain visibility, find sponsors, and stay in the succession planning pipeline. A Guide for Managers: An essential primer for non-Asian leaders on how to support their Asian team members, foster an inclusive environment, and unlock their full potential.…
