C100 Webinar: "Asian American Career Lessons - Overcoming Bias and Stereotypes"

The Committee of 100 (C100) is pleased to invite you to attend the thirty-ninth Committee of 100 Asian American Career Ceilings Initiative event. This will be a new program under the title of “Master Classes: Asian American Career Lessons” where they will feature experts who will conduct tutorials on various topics related to how individuals can overcome Asian American Career Ceiling Obstacles.

The first Master Class will be on the topic of "Master Classes: Asian American Career Lessons - Overcoming Bias and Stereotypes” and will feature two executives who will provide a tutorial.

The two instructors will be Fred Hassan, former CEO of two large pharmaceutical companies, Pharmacia and Schering Plough, and now a director at Warburg Pincus, and Buck Gee, former Vice President and General Manager of the Data Center Business Unit, Cisco and Committee of 100 member.

They have purposely selected instructors who were successful in their corporate leadership careers, but can speak freely about the career challenges in their corporate lives because they are now retired and can give candid advice. In addition, both instructors have been successful mentors to help others succeed.

Peter Young, Chair of the Initiative and a Committee of 100 Member, will be the moderator. After the conclusion of the fireside chat, there will be a Q&A session during which members of the audience may ask questions. The webinar will be held on December 13, 2024 from 4:00 to 5:00 pm ET (1:00 to 2:00 pm PT). There is no fee for the webcast.
