Happy Asian American Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AANHPI) Heritage Month!
Joining Humans of Authenticity this week is Diana Lee Tucker, CAE, COO at the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA), as she shares insights on her cultural heritage, journey in the association and the significance of adaptability in personal and career growth.
Reflecting on her identity as a first-generation Chinese American, Diana discusses the importance of being aware of ourselves as we assimilate into the environment and how to stand out. Personally, we debunk myths and share our perceptions about Asians in a professional context. Professionally, Diana shares a detailed blueprint for component relations and how you could prepare your references to put you ahead in your job search. I admire her spirit of uplifting those around her and the value of asserting accomplishments while navigating stereotypes.
I hope you enjoy this episode.
