Abstract

This is a discussion paper. Its purpose is to generate discussion and suggested actions to break the Bamboo ceiling in Australia. Although the country#x2019;s workforce is now multicultural and ethnic diverse, senior management positions are remaining in white people ith British or first world countries#x2019; heritage. There is little research or discussion about elevating Eastern orientated people into senior management positions, even though the second generation was born and grew up in this country. The authors, based on anecdotal evidence and Australia#x2019;s history, posit that further research of corporation roles, the necessary changes of Asian mentality and the role government needs to play is warranted.
