企业管理系学术讲座（6月16日） 主题: Understanding the Bamboo Ceiling 摘要：Well-educated and prosperous, Asians are commonly viewed as the “model minority” in the United States. I challenge this rosy view by uncovering a “Bamboo Ceiling” in different contexts, including (a) leadership attainment, (b) salaries, and (c) academic performance. Across 9 papers using mixed methods, my research examines the Bamboo Ceiling’s scope, mechanisms, and potential remedies. In terms of scope, whereas most researchers and practitioners treat Asians as a monolithic group, I theoretically and empirically distinguish among East Asians (e.g., Chinese), Southeast Asians (e.g., Vietnamese), and South Asians (e.g., Indians). My studies consistently find that ethnic East and Southeast Asians—but not ethnic South Asians—experience the Bamboo Ceiling. In terms of mechanisms, I systematically test intrapersonal, interpersonal, intergroup, and organizational factors underlying these disparities. In terms of remedies, I explore interventions that help break the Bamboo Ceiling. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed. 主讲嘉宾： Jackson Lu Professor Massachusetts Institute of Technology 嘉宾简介：Jackson G. Lu is the General Motors Professor of Management at the MIT Sloan School of Management. He currently serves as a Senior Editor for Organization Science and an Associate Editor for the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. He received his PhD from Columbia Business School in 2018 and early tenure at MIT in 2023. His research focuses on three streams: (1) the “Bamboo Ceiling” experienced by Asians; (2) how multicultural experiences (e.g., working abroad) shape key organizational outcomes, including leadership, creativity, and ethics; and (3) the multifaceted impact of AI on individuals and organizations. Jackson has published in leading general science journals (e.g., Nature Human Behaviour, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences), management journals (e.g., Journal of Applied Psychology, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Organization Science), and psychology journals (e.g., Annual Review of Psychology, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Psychological Bulletin, Psychological Science). His research has been featured in over 300 media outlets (e.g., BBC, The Economist, The Financial Times, Harvard Business Review, NPR, The Boston Globe, The New York Times, The Washington Post). His work has been recognized with prestigious honors such as the “40 Best Business School Professors in the World Under 40” and “30 Thinkers to Watch,” as well as more than 60 research awards from the Academy of Management, the American Psychological Association, the Association for Psychological Science, the Behavioral Science & Policy Association, the International Association for Conflict Management, the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues, and the Society of Experimental Social Psychology.
