Summary: Careless People: Sarah Wynn-Williams
Quick Savant
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
This scathing biography reveals the emotional and political consequences that arise when unbridled power and a corrupt corporate culture take hold, from private jet travel and meetings with foreign leaders to startling reports of sexism and double standards behind the scenes. This eye-opening biography exposes the true nature of the world's elite in a compelling and often ridiculous story about a few individuals who recklessly hold the world in their hands.
Sarah Wynn-Williams recounts the heartbreaking yet entertaining history of Facebook, charting its ascent from clumsy run-ins with juntas to Mark Zuckerberg's response upon discovering Facebook's involvement in Trump's victory. As Sheryl Sandberg encourages her and others to "lean in," she goes through the difficulties and humiliations of working parenthood in a high-pressure professional environment.
Sharp, honest, and completely disarming, Careless People is a very personal story of how and why things have gone so terribly wrong in the last ten years. Careless People takes a close, uncompromising look at the role that social media has taken on in our lives and exposes the reality about Facebook's leaders: the more power they have, the less accountable they become, and the effects this has on all of us.
“When one of the world’s most powerful media companies tries to snuff out a book — amid other alarming attacks on free speech in America like this — it’s time to pull out all the stops.” –Ron Charles, The Washington Post
An explosive memoir charting one woman’s career at the heart of one of the most influential companies on the planet, Careless People gives you a front-row seat to Facebook, the decisions that have shaped world events in recent decades, and the people who made them.
