Asian American women are the least likely to be promoted of any demographic, but the 2024 TIME CEO of the Year is a Taiwanese American woman named Lisa Su. Most East Asian CEOs have not been promoted to their positions, they have had to start their own companies in order to get that position. AMD CEO Lisa Su worked her way to the top despite all of the stereotypes and obstacles. She defied the odds and is proof that Asian American women are perfectly capable of leading. “Asian Americans are least likely to be promoted to senior management and leadership: In 2016, Ascend found that one of every 12 white men and one of every 28 white women in the professional workforce is an executive, but only one of every 30 Asian American men and one of every 64 Asian American women have reached executive level. East Asian women report lower engagement and career satisfaction. They are 66% less likely than white women to see a long-term future in tech, 42% more likely to have felt demeaned, disrespected, left out of the loop, or treated as invisible, 47% more likely than white women to have their competence and commitment put into question when becoming mothers, and 38% more likely to have difficulty getting administrative support. South Asian women were 60% less likely than white women to see a long-term future in tech, 54% more likely to be given work beneath their skillset, and 54% more likely to feel that distancing from those like them was a politically savvy move at work. Whereas Southeast Asian women were 29% more likely than white women to leave a job for the workplace culture, 57% more likely to feel called on to perform emotional labor, 51% more likely to feel corralled into traditionally feminine roles, 45% more likely to feel perceived as a team player not a leader, and 43% more likely to feel expected to be a worker bee.” 👏👏👍👍👍 #ScholER
