Conclusion

We appreciate that you finished reading this book, and we encourage you to use this as a reference guide to go back to and apply what you have learned from each chapter to your life. We hope you share this book as a resource to those in your network, community, friends, or whomever you feel could benefit from it.

What you need to remember is that “visibility” is a mindset. Incorporating this mindset into your professional development will help you to seize the opportunities you deserve in your career. It's not about settling for how others see you but making space for others to recognize your full potential. It's about listening to your inner voice, saying, “How can I be seen? Am I showing up in the best possible way? What more can I do?” so that you're making sure you are able to bring an abundance of opportunities to your doorstep.

We recommend you review the key takeaways and assess where you are with your own visibility mindset as you create opportunities and push past barriers for yourself and your community. This book was divided into three parts: improving yourself, working with others, and redefining the future of the workplace as the key components contributing to your visibility throughout your career journey. Think about this book as your professional toolkit to equip you to flourish and thrive as an Asian American in the workplace or to help allies learning how to support our community.

When it comes to improving yourself, you are utilizing effective communication with your voice to speak up and be heard, recognizing the unique value you bring to the workplace, building a strategic personal brand, becoming a trailblazer, optimizing a healthy work‐life balance, and breaking the stigma of mental health in the workplace.

As you continue to work with others on a professional level, you are learning ways to address microaggressions, creating your own networking toolkit to grow your connections, understanding leadership styles to apply, and optimizing mentorship as a mentor and mentee.

Redefining the future of the workplace is essential for the steps you take today shaping our tomorrow. As you learned in this last section, we can all be a better ally to bring forth a better future. You can apply what you learned from this book to become a more effective ally and be mindful of your leadership.
