Let It Go

In "Let It Go," Dame Stephanie Shirley shares her remarkable memoir detailing her groundbreaking career as a female entrepreneur in the male-dominated tech industry of the 1960s. Starting a pioneering software company, she empowered women to work remotely while transforming her business into a model of generosity by creating 70 millionaires among her staff. The narrative also reflects on her personal journey, from being a Kindertransport refugee during World War II to her experiences with loss and philanthropy. Co-written with Richard Askwith, the book offers an inspiring glimpse into how Shirley found greater fulfillment in giving away her wealth than in accumulating it.
