Deborah Liu visits Google to discuss her book "Take Back Your
Power: 10 New Rules for Women at Work."
We live in a world where women only make up 20% of Russell 300
company board seats; where for every 100 hundred men hired into
management, only 86 women are promoted; where women earn six out of
every ten college degrees, but make less money. And while we can't
make the world fair, we can take back our power. As a woman in
Silicon Valley who worked her way to the top of the corporate
ladder, Deborah Liu knows firsthand the challenges and obstacles in
the workplace that keep the deck stacked against women in the
workplace . . . and the ways to overcome them.
Deborah Liu is a seasoned technology executive based in Silicon
Valley. She is currently the president and CEO of Ancestry.com, the
