About this listen

A sharp, funny, behind-the-scenes look at proving yourself in a high-stakes corporate culture while quietly panicking on the inside.

With warmth and clarity, Patty Azzarello shares the true story of her extraordinary rise through the male-dominated tech industry. Why Is SHE Still Here? is an insightful, candid, and unexpectedly vulnerable memoir—not just about the promotions and boardroom wins, but also the awkward meetings, serious outfits, sex and violence, and deeply human moments that shaped her leadership journey.

This is not a how-to book. It’s a how-it-felt book—about ambition, imposter syndrome, anxiety, and the constant pressure to prove yourself in a world where you are undervalued simply because you have boobs.

If you’ve ever doubted your place at the table or felt too nervous to go after your dreams, Patty’s story will give you the encouragement you need to pull up a chair anyway.

About the Author: Patty Azzarello is a former tech executive, speaker, and bestselling author. She lives in Chicago and spends as much time as possible in Italy eating pizza.

With the third book of this amazing woman just finished, I feel greatful that Patty Azzarello has gifted us with another insightful, poweful and precious set of her personal stories, experience, wisdom and secret pathways. Every word written and read by Patty was treasure to me and I wanted to listen more and more as I advanced through the audio book. I would strongly recommend this book and the other two books by the same author - RISE and MOVE to everyone who wants to understand what stands behind excellence and true greatness.
