Learn to Embrace Conflict
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=219385&nl=daily often get
asked why there are so many more South Asian CEOs than East Asian CEOs
in Corporate America. Among the Fortune 500, the CEOs of
Alphabet/Google (Sundar Pichai), Microsoft, (Satya Nadella), Adobe
(Shantanu Narayen), Chanel (Leena Nair), IBM (Arvind Krishna), Micron
(Sanjay Mehrotra), Palo Alto Networks (Nikesh Arora) and former CEOs
of Mastercard (Ajay Banga) and Pepsi (Indra Nooyi) were all born in
India and were appointed the CEO position. There are far fewer East
Asian CEOs in the Fortune 500, and most of them are the founders of
their companies like Jensen Huang (Nvidia), Tony Xu (DoorDash), Lisa
Su (AMD) and Hock Tan (Broadcom). Three of these are in the
semiconductor industry and two of them founded their companies. This
is just a list of the Fortune 500 CEOs, but the data shows that South
Asians not only outperformed East Asians at this level, but also
over-indexed compared to white CEOs.

Whereas extensive research has examined the “glass ceiling” faced
by women, little research has examined the “bamboo ceiling,”
whereby Asians appear disproportionately underrepresented in
leadership positions in the United States. To investigate the
mechanisms and scope of this problem, we compared the two largest
Asian subgroups: East Asians and South Asians. Across nine studies (n
= 11,030), East Asians were less likely than South Asians and whites
to attain leadership positions, whereas South Asians outperformed
whites. The leadership attainment gap between East Asians and South
Asians was consistently explained by cultural differences in
assertiveness, but not by prejudice or motivation.

Note: In the Indian context, collectivism seems to show up more in the
form of collaborative problem-solving and consensus-building, not
conflict avoidance. Indians aren't passive, they're pragmatic. They
value resolution over repression. Researchers pointed out that these
conflict resolution styles are very similar to those of Americans and
other Westerners. This may or may not be the result of British
colonial influence (this coupled with English fluency, the diversity
of religions and caste system in India leading to more frequent
conflicts, could be an entirely separate essay). What all this
underscores is something I talk about a lot: people are more complex
than cultural caricatures. You can't just map behaviors onto someone
because of where they're from. Understanding generational differences,
personality, and professional context matters just as much, if not
more, than making broad cultural assumptions.
