Recognized by the 2026 International Impact Book Awards for Outstanding Literary Achievement in Memoir.
Part memoir, part satire, and part survival guide, A Woman's Guide to Winning in Tech is for every woman who has ever been interrupted in a meeting, underestimated in the workplace, or expected to decode an alphabet soup of corporate acronyms without a translator.
Tired of being the only woman in the room, and still having to prove you belong?
You're not imagining it. And you're definitely not alone.
A Woman's Guide to Winning in Tech is a witty, satirical, and sharp-edged survival guide that dismantles the myth that men are "naturally better" at technology. Through real (and hilariously exaggerated) stories, Caroline Dunn reveals how ridiculous gender stereotypes are-and arms you with humor, confidence, and strategies to thrive in classrooms, conference rooms, and comment sections.
Inside, you'll find chapters including:
- Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
- Manual for Surviving Mansplaining
- Feedback is Not a Gift
- Network with Confidence
Packed with fake forums, parody FAQs ("Frequently Annoying Questions"), and laugh-out-loud anecdotes, this book shows that competence-not chromosomes-makes the system run.
Perfect for:
✅ Women in STEM or just starting out
✅ Professionals navigating tech culture at any career stage
✅ Mentors, allies, and leaders who want to spark change
✅ Anyone ready to challenge the status quo (and laugh while doing it)
