Gina Chua
Andrew Murfett, senior managing editor at LinkedIn, interviewed Semafor executive editor Gina Chua — who worked in leadership roles at Reuters and The Wall Street Journal — about her career.
Here is an excerpt:
I was the first Asian to be editor of The Asian Wall Street Journal. There were some cultural issues. The previous editors tended to be American. I would go to, say, a printing class plant opening in Korea and, essentially no one would expect that I was the one who was the editor. If I went with my boss, a white American man, the security people would try to stop me from following them in.

But that’s changed quite a bit now.
