EXCERPT:
KRISHNA: "So we take underrepresented and gender. You've got to move both forward by a percentage. That leads to a plus on your bonus. By the way, if you lose, you part of your bonus. I'm not trying to finesse this. So, for blacks, we should try to get towards 13-point-something percent. On Hispanics, you got to get into the mid teens. On gender, okay, we are somewhere in the mid 30s, I think, for all IBM. Let me say it: Asians in the U.S. are not an underrepresented minority in a tech company."
