Looking for books on how to navigate being a woman in tech. Bonus points if they’re written by someone with a technical background.

@shantini @steve “How women rise” has several examples and practices that I’ve experienced in tech throughout the years. Unfortunately there is no specific books for us.

I highly recommend you have a circle of tech women, some more senior than you, some less senior than you, that you can talk 1:1 during critical moments of your career. If opportunity comes, ask a more senior tech woman to be your mentor. But please, do get a safety circle for yourself. Also be the mentor for a junior woman.

@coxavalgus @steve I do have such a circle and it has made ALL the difference 😊
@shantini @steve just saw this book at my favourite book store: “Daring to be different - stories and tips from a woman leader in tech”. Haven’t read it yet but probably will.
@shantini @steve here is another one but haven’t read it: “women in tech” by Tarah Wheeler.
