Is an asian american male being denied senior management positions at tech firms simply because he isn’t a big NFL or NBA fan or a frat boy? It’s a very interesting discussion, though it probably wasn’t meant to be applied to this category of people.
Take my company for instance. Out of roughly 25 directors, senior directors, and VPs. it’s just interesting that I’m the only asian male. Probably because I learned to play the game. I talk about football and basketball, not because I really care,. I suspected memorizing the statistics helps when it comes to promotions…. That and my unexpected interest in cars and SCCA club racing. More so than my actual skillset….Looks like I was right..Too bad I don’t like golf. There would have come in handy too, lol.
