A Woman's Guide to Winning in Tech: It's time to win on your terms

Caroline Dunn

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)

Praise for this book

"Humorous but vital tips for women in tech to raise your voice and claim your space. Dunn has nailed it!"

- Paradoxchic

"This book should be required reading for any male who is in the Tech business--or any business for that matter--before they open their mouths and say any of the dumb stuff that Ms. Dunn calls out in this book."

- IP Strategist

"This guide is full of biting humor combined with practical career advice for any woman who has been overqualified and underestimated."

- Jennifer R

"Packed with sharp humor, unfiltered honesty, and real-world strategies, it's the ultimate playbook for navigating tech's wild ride."

- Rom Ghannam

"And for those of us not in IT (like me), it doubles as a survival guide for dealing with the occasional "Chad" from tech support-the ones who speak in mysterious codes and have the patience of a caffeinated squirrel. Highly recommend!"

- DTK

"Women will recognize the microaggressions presented in each chapter and appreciate the various proposed ways of facing them no matter their industry."
