This sent retail quantum computing stocks that had been riding the hype crashing. Not long after, he walked that back. At a subsequent event, he acknowledged that his earlier statement underestimated the pace of progress. More importantly, NVIDIA has recently begun leaning into the space, investing in infrastructure to support quantum computing development.

When being “on” is not enough. When showing up casually is actually a liability. Those are the moments that demand something different:   You have to lock in. Locking in is not about intensity for intensity’s sake. It is about intentional focus, clarity of execution, and a visible shift in standard. People can feel when a leader has locked in. The room changes. Priorities sharpen. Noise disappears. And when it matters most, leadership...]]></description><link>https://www.theamasianway.com/post/lock-in-the-leadership-discipline-that-separates-presence-from-impact</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69df7d37934ce577916eb801</guid><pubDate>Wed, 15 Apr 2026 12:00:54 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/4708c9_6f051022f6bb4e819a3edc494a100ef8~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Bartholomew Jae</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The MOVE Principle: Hope doesn’t move anything.

It keeps us going when things feel uncertain. But hope doesn’t create progress. Movement does. That’s where The MOVE Principle  comes in: Movement Over Vacant Expectation Hope without action is just waiting. Expectation without movement is just an assumption. Progress starts when you move.

It’s About Who You Serve.]]></title><description><![CDATA[Servant leadership has long been positioned as the gold standard of leadership. Coined by Robert K. Greenleaf, the idea is simple on the surface: The leader exists to serve others first, and through that service, organizations perform better. At its best, servant leadership is about: Elevating people Removing obstacles Creating the conditions for others to succeed Prioritizing long-term growth over short-term wins It sounds straightforward. Almost obvious.

Today, I want to apply the concepts of customer experience to career progression.  " Experience " has been a heavily used buzzword for the past decade.  Corporate functions and consulting offerings have been built around customer experience.  The idea is that a customer's experience heavily influences purchase decisions.  As an omnichannel consumer (catalog, online, app-enabled, and in-store), I wholeheartedly agree.

From that moment forward, I spent as much time leading student organizations as I did on my school work. My parents would argue that I spent too much time leading and not enough time studying.

This was one very important lesson I learned over my years of professional experience.  Growing up as an Asian American, I constantly struggled to navigate the space between boasting and self-advocacy.  Most Asians were raised in very strict homes where children were disciplined rigorously to be quiet, respectful, and humble.  They were taught to study hard and let their grades speak for themselves.

Did you ever have a tough time completing a behavioral test, such as Myer Briggs because it felt like you could answer the question multiple ways?

Here’s How to Build It on Purpose.]]></title><description><![CDATA[Most professionals don’t stall because they lack talent. They stall because they lose momentum. Momentum is what turns effort into progress you can feel. It’s the difference between pushing a boulder uphill every Monday and having the work roll forward with less force. John Maxwell has a well-known line: momentum solves most problems. Even if the exact percentage is debatable, the idea holds. When you’re moving, a lot of friction disappears.

Values. Mission. Strategy. But culture is not built in statements. It’s built into how people treat each other in close proximity. In that sense, the most overlooked model for a thriving culture is not a corporation or a framework. It’s a neighborhood. A good neighborhood is not defined by sameness. It is defined by a shared understanding: we may be different, but we look out for each other. We take care of what we share.

And some lead because they believe helping others move forward is part of what they are here to do. These are not small differences.
