“Reset” by Ellen Pao • Book Review

Published: 19 Sep 2017 by Random House
Format: Audiobook, 11 hours, Narrated by Emily Woo Zeller

“We're either silent or a buzzkill.”

★★★★★ (5 / 5 stars) Reset tells the true story of Ellen Pao’s experience as a victim of sexual harassment (of varying degrees) from law school to tech startups to the VC world. This book is well worth the read, and forces readers to confront how they contribute to a dysfunctional system—in this case, a standard of sexism nearing “Mad Men” levels.

Having read this and seen women firsthand experience atrocious discrimination and condescension from men in a professional environment, I challenge you (along with Ellen) to think differently about discrimination of all kinds in the workplace and find solutions that will make a real change for the better.
