In 1970,18 percent of the citys population wasforeign-born. By 1995,the figure had risen to 33 percent,and another 20 percent werethe US-born offsprings of immigrants. So immigrants and their children now form amajority of the citys population. Who are these New Yorkers? Why do they come here? Where are they from? (OK, timeto drop the “they”.Im one of them.) The last question at least is easy toanswer: we come from everywhere. In the list of the top 20 source nations of thosesending immigrants to New York between1990 and 1994 are six countries in Asia, fivein the Caribbean, four in Latin America, three in Europe, plus Israel and the formerSoveit Union. And when we immigrants get here we roll up our sleeves.“If you arenot ready to work when you get to New York,”says a friend of mone, “youd betterhit the road.” The mayor of New York once said, “Immigrantion continues to shape the uniquecharter and drive the economic engine of New York City”.He believes that immigrantsare at the heart of what makes New York great. In Europe, by contrast, it is muchmore common to hear politicians worry about the loss of“unity”that immigrationbrings to their societies. In the quarter century since 1970,the United Statesadmitted about 12.5million legal immigrants, and has absorbed them into its socialstructures with an ease beyond the immagination of other nations.

Opinions vary widely. Given approximately equal qualifications andcircumstances, some claim the success factor is largely a matter of luckbeing inthe right place at the right time. Others speak of an almost crazy devotion to work,combined with a degree of ruthlessness. One “expert” maintains that itsundoubtedly a matter of how much education your mother had.To make it big, executives must possess four basic skills:First, drive. Business success takes an unusual amount of energy. A successfulexecutivealmost by definitionis a striver. He will get tense when he is notstriving.Second, people sense.
