S3E7: Ivan Ng - The Visibility Gap
from The Thriving Misfits Hosted by Fyiona Yong
Why do so many high-performing Asian professionals stay overlooked despite doing everything “right”? In this episode of The Thriving Misfits, Fyiona Yong sits down with Ivan Ng, a senior supply chain leader with 14 years of experience across APAC, having worked with global brands such as Sephora, Nike, Apple, British American Tobacco, and The Coca-Cola Company. Together, they unpack the uncomfortable truth behind the bamboo ceiling, why many Asian leaders struggle with self-promotion, and why great work alone is often not enough to get noticed. From navigating the tension between humility and visibility to owning your personal brand without feeling inauthentic, this conversation challenges the belief that hard work always speaks for itself. If you’ve ever felt overlooked, under-recognized, or stuck despite delivering results, this episode is for you.
