Summary
A straight-shooting Silicon Valley executive reveals insider career strategies to becoming a great leader, developing your network, succeeding without wasting time, and managing trade-offs between your work and life so your life works.
Patty Azzarello became the youngest general manager at Hewlett-Packard at age 33, ran a $1 billion software business at 35, and became a CEO at 38 - all without turning into a self-centered, miserable jerk. In Rise, Azzarello shares the insider secrets to advancing your career (while having a life) in three practical steps:
- Do better: Set ruthless priorities, and work and lead more strategically to deal with frustrating obstacles.
- Look better: Build your credibility with the people who can help (or blacklist) you.
- Connect better: Develop your network without being political. Get on "the list" of people who get the best opportunities.
Whether you are just starting up the corporate ladder, stuck midcareer, transitioning, or eyeing the corner office, Rise shows you the difference between getting ahead and just working hard.

A metaphorical slap in the face
Read this to wake you up from your management or leadership slumber. It does the trick.

Excellent
This was a truly impressive material. The reading felt a bit flat for me in some parts but overall the material was compelling and thus difficult to ‘put down’. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Packed to the brim with value
I have been listening to this book on my drive to work. I have been in a new leadership role for just over a year and I’m still looking for ways to be better at my job and grow my role. I have found this audiobook to be so so valuable. I often have to turn it off so I can think through all of the ideas it has sparked.
I really like Patty’s delivery style (strong and determined) and she’s credible. What I really like is that it isn’t just loads of stories of clients she’s worked with and only a sprinkle of the gold that we are actually looking for. This is full of insights, useful tips and actionable advice with some self-reflective, relatable anecdotes.
I’d highly recommend this book!

Endless to do list
This person is ridning on past success But has nothing substantial to say.
It could be summed up to be network, communicate, be positive and be grateful.
