Correction:
An earlier version of this article erroneously said research by Diversity
Inc and Catalyst indicated that almost 87 percent of corporate board seats
of Fortune 500 companies are held by white men. Almost 87 percent are held
by white workers: 73.3 percent men and 13.4 percent women.
Ingrid Yung is a made-up character, but her story seems to resonate with
the real-life Asian American lawyers gathered for a book reading in the
Washington offices of the corporate law firm Wiley Rein. Ingrid, a minority
and a woman, is a “two-fer” in the parlance of her fictional firm, where
her impatience with its clumsy approach to diversity threatens her promising
career.
“We didn’t need [expletive] Dumpling Day in the firm cafeteria,” Ingrid
fumes in the new novel “The Partner Track,” published by St. Martin’s
Press. “We needed decoder rings for all of the unwritten rules of survival
here.”
