Thanh Nam Vo Duy on Assertiveness:
"Respect your elders", "speak only when spoken to", "don't draw attention to yourself"! These are the phrases I heard from my parents growing up.

My Asian culture and very conservative French education did not prepare me well for the world of business. Thankfully, I was able to use simple tricks to become more assertive and learn to speak up over many years in corporate America. Join me in this AAPA IdeaTalks as I share my strategies to become a more assertive and successful Asian American/Pacific Islander professional.
