Reset

Years in venture capital and a spell running Reddit sit behind Ellen K. Pao's account of who gets hired, promoted and believed. Reset moves between personal narrative and analysis of the structures that shape workplace culture, covering hiring, funding decisions, boardroom dynamics and the cost of speaking up. Pao writes about her own experience directly while keeping the wider argument in view: that individual complaints rarely shift a system unless the institution changes with them. The tone stays measured and the examples stay specific. Key points from this title: • Memoir drawn from venture capital and technology leadership • Analysis of hiring, promotion and funding practice • A first-hand account of challenging workplace bias • Discussion of what institutional change actually requires For readers in business and technology, and anyone thinking about workplace culture, available from Boipoka.
