Incredibly grateful to everyone who braved Thursday evening Bay Area traffic to attend “Empowering AAPI Women Attorneys: Redefining Success and Strategies for Advancement In-House,” co-hosted by Major, Lindsey & Africa and the incredible team at WilmerHale (thanks, Frances C. Mosley!). We covered a wide range of topics, including 5 that really resonated: 1.      Success = impact. 2.      The importance of joining companies with a strong “mission, purpose, product.” 3.      How to diligence companies when you receive an offer. 4.      Ways to effectively interact with executives. 5.      Using our “otherness” to our advantage. Huge thanks to our dynamic, humorous, humble, and brilliant panelists, Iris Chen, NACD.DC (DGC, Airbnb), Marie Ma (CLO, Articulate), Sara M. Lee (GC, VSCO®), and Suchitra Narayen (DGC, Informatica), for inspiring all of us!
