- How to Break the Bamboo Ceiling | 5 Ways that Work for Asians
This video covers how to crack or smash the bamboo ceiling for Asian American immigrants and their children. The Asian immigrant glass ceiling requires a new Asian American playbook that involves building social capital, cultural capital, soft skills, social skills, and leadership skills to build trust to climb the corporate ladder. This video reveals the sociology and psychology on how to navigate this process through methods such as finding mentors and sponsors, networking, identifying good workplaces, and differentiating the approaches of calling out vs. calling in.

These indicators for a good work culture are so helpful. It is also applicable when working at an Asian local office of a US-capitalized company. I worked at Tokyo office of a US-startup, but it was so toxic. They did not satisfy the indicators at all. Thank you for your insight.
You're welcome Yukio.
Great content here, thank you for posting this up. If I had this information back when I was still a student, I wouldn't have had to learn it through the school of hard knocks!
It’s not too late now!
This was really insightful! Thank you.
You’re welcome! Feel free to share with any other Asians you feel may benefit from this!
How can you build trust if your face is the reason they don’t trust you?
Dr Tam, you’re falling into the trap. Telling Asian people to work on soft skills is condescending and prejudiced. You’re not helping Asians when you say this. You’re only keeping the stereotypes alive. At work I see many people of different races with very poor social skills who are not deemed as having poor social skills because they are not the overwhelming minority or odd person out. Asians in the west are always disadvantaged at work because they lack strength in numbers. The advice you give sounds like you’ve internalized all the Asian stereotypes and believe them to be true. Your advice is cruel!
i have friends who see psychologist in order to fit into society in the west. They blame their lack of sucess on their parents Tiger upbringing which gave them strong academic performance. In reality I don't think the psychologist work because people are not going to have less prejudice against them which causes their lack of opportunities.
