Mimi Nguyen's mother, Thanh, has always been super anxious. She obsessively calls Mimi at all hours and is always worried they're in danger. This paranoia really put a strain on their relationship, until Mimi heard Thanh talking in her sleep one night. And Mimi realized… maybe there were long-hidden family secrets that might explain Thanh's behavior. This story contains strong language, graphic depictions of war, and mention of suicide. Please take care while listening. Thank you, Mimi & Thanh, for sharing your story with us! Stephanie Foo produced this story – she also wrote a memoir about intergenerational immigrant trauma and her own complex PTSD… in it, she tears down her own walls and shares her and her family's story.

How do you successfully manage products during an acquisition? As we kick off a new year of Better Product, we want to focus on a topic that has come up often during our interviews: how do you manage products (and product teams) through acquisition? Acquisitions are a natural part of company growth, but they also present a number of challenges that can look very different depending on your situation. In this first episode of our new series, we talk with Mimi Nguyen about Genesys’ acquisition of Interactive Intelligence in 2017 and what she learned during that transition. Mimi shares what it was like to go from having a team located in one city to working with a team that spans time zones. She also gives her insight into what the transition meant for Interactive Intelligence’s products and the product teams themselves. Listen in to hear part one of our new series on managing products through acquisition. Connect with Christian Connect with Anna Learn more about Innovatemap Connect with Mimi Learn more about Genesys
Mimi Nguyen a fui le Vietnam tout bébé avec sa famille, et a grandi ensuite en région Parisienne. Elle est à Singapour depuis 3 ans, et si quelques passages vous évoqueront des similitudes avec d'autres parcours de Français d'origine vietnamienne, elle nous offre un regard unique sur son expérience et sa relation au Vietnam et à l'Asie. Ce n'est pas parce qu'on est asiatique qu'on a forcement plus d'affinitiés avec l'Asie qu'autre chose. Elle nous parlera aussi du poids du passé dont elle a hérité, de ce tabou autour de la guerre, ce silence qui se transmet de génération en génération, et de la nécessite de briser cela pour se libérer des traumas. Elle partagera avec nous aussi son vécu de femme, harcelée à Paris, mais pas à Singapour. C'est dense et émouvant à la fois. Et après l'épisode, retrouvez-nous sur Instagram et Facebook pour des bonus videos de nos invités et suivre notre actualité !
