Ms. Anne Doyle, speaker at the recent Women in NAAAP! (WIN!) regional conference in Dallas-Fort Worth, wrote for Forbes Magazine several insights she gained from our event:

  • The biggest mistake Caucasians make about Asian Americans is to assume they think alike and share similar cultural backgrounds. 
  • "...a lot of people don’t think we’re up to the task.  But of course we are,” says another conference presenter, Thear Sy of Accenture.
  • Heterogeneous groups consistently outperform homogenous groups when solving complex problems.
