À propos de cet audio

 “A powerful illustration of the obstacles our society continues to throw up in the paths of ambitious young women.” —The New York Times Book Review

“Important . . . empowering.” —Gayle King, CBS This Morning

"That [Fowler] became a whistle-blower and a pioneer of a social movement almost seems inevitable once you get to know her. Uber should have seen her coming.” —San Francisco Chronicle

Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR

 Susan Fowler was just twenty-five years old when her blog post describing the sexual harassment and retaliation she'd experienced at Uber riveted the nation. Her post would eventually lead to the ousting of Uber's powerful CEO, but its ripples extended far beyond that, as her courageous choice to attach her name to the post inspired other women to speak publicly about their experiences. In the year that followed, an unprecedented number of women came forward, and Fowler was recognized by Time as one of the "Silence Breakers" who ignited the #MeToo movement.

Here, she shares her full story: a story of extraordinary determination and resilience that reveals what it takes--and what it means--to be a whistleblower. Long before she arrived at Uber, Fowler's life had been defined by her refusal to accept her circumstances. She propelled herself from an impoverished childhood with little formal education to the Ivy League, and then to a coveted position at one of the most valuable companies in the history of Silicon Valley. Each time she was mistreated, she fought back or found a way to reinvent herself; all she wanted was the opportunity to define her own dreams and work to achieve them. But when she discovered Uber's pervasive culture of sexism, racism, harassment, and abuse, and that the company would do nothing about it, she knew she had to speak out—no matter what it cost her.

Whistleblower takes us deep inside this shockingly toxic workplace and reveals new details about the aftermath of the blog post, in which Fowler was investigated and followed, hacked and threatened, to the point that she feared for her life. But even as it illuminates how the deck is stacked in favor of the status quo, Fowler's story serves as a crucial reminder that we can take our power back. Both moving personal narrative and rallying cry, Whistleblower urges us to be the heroes of our own stories, and to keep fighting for a more just and equitable world.

You know it is a good (audio) book if you can't stop listening to it.

The story is very powerful and enlightening. Paired with a narration that also shows the emotion being conveyed by the author. You can't help but feel the pain and pressure experienced by the author while working at Uber.

When a story moves you and you can imagine how things are played out as each word of the book is read, you definitely got a treasure. This is a gem of a book by all means.

Thoughtfully written and excellently narrated

Thank you to Susan for going public. I found my self nodding my head as I heard her story as I knew what was coming next. I have 17 years in the Tech industry, normally one of the few women on my team. Everything described in this book happened to me over the years, and more. There were no harassment protections until recent years. The book questions if corporate harassment protective policy is window dressing . The author challenges the operationalization of harassments and whistleblower policy at one of the most revered Tech companies in North America . This story along with others from Silicon Valley forced companies to look at Sexual Harassment as a Corporate risk with real financial impact. Most interesting, to me is that Susan experienced this in an organization that rewarded managers for maintaining "diverse" teams.

Necessary Read for Every Corporate Citizen
