The Asian Amercian Business Development Center is kicking off a brand new afterwork event series, The Voices of the Outstanding 50 – Listening, Learning, and Sharing with Outstanding Asian Americans in Business.
This event is made possible by Pfizer, Inc.
Asians in America are among the most successful and energetic contributors to the corporate and entrepreneurial worlds. But many of their stories are unknown and their voices unheard. The Asian American Business Development Center (AABDC) is tapping hundreds of its business award winners from the past decade to share their experiences, and offer encouragement and wisdom through a recurring evening event frequency of every month, or every other month in New York City.
Speakers come from the Pinnacle Award ranks, the highest honor from the AABDC, as well as the over 750 Outstanding 50 Asian Americans in Business award winners from the past 16 years. Hailing from a diversity of industries and from around the United States, the event speakers will offer insights from their roles at Fortune 500 companies, as small- and medium-sized business owners, and as start up entrepreneurs.
Themes that will be explored in future events: Getting into leadership roles, The importance of mentorship, Being a minority in your company/industry, Challenges Asian women face, How to present effectively and career lessons learned.
