According to sources, there is a substantial gap in ethnic representation at top levels that companies should try closing if they want to see more robust business results. Thank you Agenda Financial Times for bringing to light the diversity gap in boardrooms today and the importance of building a more inclusive future at the top. #InclusiveLeadership #BoardroomEquity #AAPI #API #Ascend #Leadership

Still reminiscing on the incredible moments shared at Ascend Greater Washington’s 2024 IAG Conference last Friday! 🌟 President Biden's inspiring letter was a true highlight, reminding us of the vital role we play in our nation's fabric. The candid and honest insights from the panelists, sharing their personal journeys and valuable advice were incredibly enriching. Thank you, Ascend, for an unforgettable event!
