Summary:
When news anchor, journalist, mother of two, and 1989 Miss America Gretchen Carlson spoke up about sexual
harassment
in the workplace, she had no idea what lay ahead. In July 2016, she filed a lawsuit against then Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes claiming sexual
harassment
. Then, inspired by her actions, the floodgates opened and thousands of women joined her to Be
Fierce
and reclaim their
power
against abuse or injustice. Gretchen shares her own experiences, as well as powerful and moving stories from women in many different careers and fields who decided they too weren't ready to shut up and sit down. What women can do to empower and protect themselves in the workplace or on a college campus, what to say when someone makes suggestive remarks, how an employer's Human Resources department may not always be
your
friend, and how forced arbitration clauses in work contracts often serve to protect companies rather than employees. A motivating testament to what we can accomplish if we collectively decide to become warriors in the path for a better future.
