Overview

A bold, funny, and deeply honest memoir about a woman rising in a male-dominated industry while battling imposter syndrome at work and feeling like an outsider looking in. Patty Azzarello shows how introverts in leadership can thrive by embracing their vulnerability-and break the glass ceiling without breaking themselves. ""Raw, funny, and painfully honest. Patty Azzarello doesn't just tell you what it's like to be an ambitious woman in a male-dominated corporate world: she makes you feel it. This book is not just a memoir, it's a survival manual for anyone who's ever felt like an outsider in a room they fought hard to enter. Essential reading for future leaders with a soul."" -Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, author of Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders? ""This isn't just a book-it's a gift. It feels alive. It's funny, piercing, generous, and deeply wise. I was hooked instantly. It's the mentor I never had. Patty tells us how to succeed in business without being a jerk, a fraud, or a doormat. I think all young women starting their careers should read it. Actually, women-and men-of all ages should read it too."" -Danny Gregory, author of The Creative License, Art Before Breakfast, and Shut Your Monkey With warmth and clarity, Patty Azzarello shares the story of her extraordinary rise through the male-dominated tech industry. Why Is SHE Still Here? is an insightful, candid, and unexpectedly vulnerable memoir-not just about the promotions and boardroom wins, but also the awkward meetings, overly serious outfits, sexism in the workplace, raw moments of doubt, and deeply human missteps that shaped her journey. This is not a how-to book. It's a how-it-felt book about navigating ambition, imposter syndrome at work, showing up scared and doing it anyway-and the constant pressure to prove yourself in a world where you are undervalued at work simply because you have boobs. It's about leading with vulnerability, the power of introverts in leadership, and how women can rise without sacrificing their humanity. If you've ever doubted your place at the table or felt unwelcome or too nervous to go after your dreams, Patty's story will give you the encouragement you need to pull up a chair anyway-and show that breaking the glass ceiling is possible even when the odds are stacked against you.
