Synopsis



A groundbreaking manifesto from journalist Gretchen Carlson about how women can protect themselves from sexual harassment in the workplace and reclaim their power against abuse or injustice.In BE FIERCE, 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. Gretchen became a voice for the voiceless.
In this revealing and timely book, Gretchen shares her views on 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. Her groundbreaking message encourages women to stand up and speak up in every aspect of their lives.
Gretchen also discusses why this fight will require both women and men working together to ensure that our daughters and sons will have a brighter future.
BE FIERCE is a cultural movement and a motivating testament to what we can accomplish if we collectively decide to become warriors in the path for a better future.The time is now. Take back your life, your career, and your dignity.

Goodreads review by Kat on November 12, 2017

I very rarely read non-fiction, but I saw this on the shelf at work and I was like “what can former Miss America, former Fox anchor possibly have to say about sexual harassment?” (Even tho I knew she had arbitrated her own sexual harassment case this past year). Believe me I ate my own damn words. T......more

Goodreads review by Paula on December 25, 2021

This book found me at the exact moment when I needed it. I had just left a job due to egregious gender discrimination, the Harvey Weinstien scandal was in the future, and the #MeToo movement had not yet exploded. Be Fierce helped validate my own experiences, and my reaction to them; experiences that......more

Goodreads review by Peebee on November 28, 2017

Given my professional predilections, of course I had to read this book eventually, and after seeing Gretchen Carlson speak at a work event earlier this year, I was even more curious. How would she write about sexual harassment without discussing her own situation at Fox News? Her timing couldn't be......more

Here’s the thing though, and I re......more
