How much do you feel that “Asian” generally means Chinese, with initiatives and stats mainly representative of that group, but in turn impacts Filipinos as a minority of minorities, who can have very different challenges than the majority “Asian” group?

Definitely agree with this. We have ERG’s at work and “Asians” are mostly represented by Chinese, Korean, or Japanese. One of the ERG’s more active leaders is a 2nd Gen Fil-Am and in the years I’ve worked with this company there was only 1 Pinoy event that served Americanized filipino food.

What ive experienced is that there arent many filipinos in corporate role, and those i have encountered, dont seem to want to do anything as a filipino group

I think filipino groups are small in all corporate companies. Even in Google, its a super small population, especially considering the size of the org, and that the HQ is in California. I agree it sucks that we are left out of stats, and our struggles masked by the improvements in the overall “Asian” groups.

I joined a project that had already started and the team already settled on creating a user journey map, even though none of them are designers or in ux. I also have no experience in this field as I'm a data engineer. The user journey map was for mapping out the process for tenants finding housing assistance, so not a technical product. Given this new field and type of work, I've been having a really tough time. Anyone mind sharing what helped get you through your first ux project?
