Thank you, LinkedIn community.
Yon Na, PhD
Organizational Consultant & Executive Coach ? I help executives, leaders & teams accelerate performance by applying organizational psychology principles.
My Ph.D. journey, which I started eight years ago, has been filled with extreme highs and lows. I never felt there was a middle ground. I've been steadily working toward this moment in time, where I can listen to the stories of Asian women and learn about their experiences.
My sincere gratitude goes out to everyone who helped me get the word out about my dissertation research study: The Experiences of Asian Immigrant Women: Journeys into Corporate Leadership.
As of today, I have attained my goal of identifying seven to nine Asian women who have extended their generosity to me. The participants' identities will remain confidential yet their collective stories will contribute to the knowledge about Asian women in leadership.
On a personal level, before my Dad transitioned from this world, he asked me to take care of my Mom, live a happy life and finish my Ph.D.
Thank you all for helping me to stay true to my promise.
