Ancestry CEO Deb Liu grew up in one of the only Asian families in South Carolina. To avoid being teased, she mostly kept to herself. It wasn’t until Deb got to Stanford Business School when she realized: she had to learn to speak up. That realization spurred her long career in Silicon Valley. But Deb says, without some openness and vulnerability from herself and others, it never would’ve happened.

In this episode, Deb shares:

  • Why she should’ve been fired from her first product management role
  • How being open and vulnerable with her boss actually helped her career
  • Key moments from her tech-heavy product career at eBay + Facebook
  • Why being a “strategic introvert” allowed her to contribute more effectively at work
  • Her most used tip from her new book, Take Your Power Back
