“Findings of the Asian American Career Ceilings Survey - Part II” Dec 11

Dear Friends,

We are pleased to invite you to attend the 52nd Committee of 100 Asian American Career Ceilings Initiative event on the “Findings of the Asian American Career Ceilings Survey – Part II” on December 11 at 6 pm ET and will cover breakdowns of the results by gender, age group, seniority and profession and what the respondents said about what solution(s) they believe should be implemented by companies, government agencies, etc. to counter Asian American Career obstacles and examples of incidents that they experienced. Part I will cover the key findings for the surveyed group as a whole and will be held on December 3 at 6 PM ET.

There have been very few surveys done in a professional manner on the issue of Asian American Career Ceilings that seek to capture the opinions and experiences of Asian Americans. Although an informal survey was conducted more than a year ago, the decision was made to do a formal survey that was completed in November. The results are thought provoking and should be valuable to both individuals striving to be successful and for policy makers who are tackling this problem.

The survey posed the following questions:

· Do you feel that your career success has been impeded in any way because of your ethnicity?

· If so, what form of career disadvantage do you feel you have been subjected to (check all that apply):

· What do you feel was the cause of the career disadvantage?

· Over the last five years, on a scale of 0 to 10, at what level of severity do you feel that you have been subject to Asian American Career Ceilings obstacles (0 = no impact and 10 = severe impact)?

· Do you feel that the current tensions between the U.S. and China and the Asia hate incidences have had any impact on your career success? 0 to 10 scale (0 = no impact and 10 -= severe impact)

· Share a specific incident that you experienced that you feel is an example of an Asian American Career obstacle.

· Share your view of what solution(s) you believe should be implemented by companies, government agencies, etc. to counter Asian American Career obstacles.

Special thanks to Jeremy Wu, a Committee of 100 member, for his review of the methodologies we used and the technical validity of the results,

Jeremy was a senior executive and manager with the federal government, retiring from the Census Bureau after also serving at the Departments of Transportation, Energy, and Agriculture.

His pioneering Big Data work at the Census Bureau included an online mapping and reporting application that was recognized as a major U.S. statistical innovation at the United Nations in 2009.
