Women In Tech: Take Your Career to the Next Level with Practical Advice and Inspiring Stories is a 2016 professional career guide written by Tarah Wheeler[1] and published by Sasquatch Books. The book began as a Kickstarter project, with 772 backers and $32,226 in funding.[2]

The book includes advice for women in developing career skills such as salary negotiation, networking, and finding work–life balance,[3] as well as personal stories from female tech professionals.[4]

Reception and Impact

Library Journal called Women in Tech "The essential handbook for women in technology -- engaging, practical, and inspirational."[5]

In the fall of 2016 the University of California, Berkeley taught a class on Wheeler's book and the necessities for overcoming barriers to entry in the technology industry and the requirements for success as a woman trying to enter the field.[6]

Women in Tech has been translated into Korean.[7]
