DO YOU HAVE TO GIVE UP YOUR CULTURE TO BUILD A CAREER?
CAN EXPERIENCE IN THE FAMILY HELP YOU LEAD AT WORK?
In her book Your Mind Is What Matters, Ivy Chin details the challenges she faced as a young Asian woman learning to thrive on American soil.
She reveals her struggles with assimilation, vividly depicts her transformation from IT Engineer to business executive, and offers valuable insights for those looking to succeed in all aspects of their professional and personal life.
In discussing her achievements, Ivy asks readers to re-examine their own tradition-rooted approach to life. Could embracing your heritage hinder you from reaching your goals? Her advice is to appreciate positive aspects of your family’s cultural background, while trusting the power of your mind to determine what, if any, attitudes, practices, and/or beliefs might be getting in the way of your future success.
Among other work-related and life-skill topics, Ivy shines a light on:
• cultivating interests -- your own and your kids
• letting go of baggage
• prioritizing time
• networking inside and outside your circles
• getting out of your comfort zone
• negotiating pay and benefits
• coping with rejection and with loss
Ivy’s story proves that any obstacle can be overcome if you’re willing to think it through, seek help from family and friends, and open yourself to belief in a balanced universe.
Anyone looking to start, enhance, or change course in their career will find Ivy’s observations invaluable, especially those who seek to bridge the East-West divide in our increasingly global business world.
