About the book

Nobody hands you a seat at the table. The people at the table got there by asking, showing up, borrowing credibility and refusing to be embarrassed about wanting more. Shameless takes back “social climber” and turns it into a playbook.

Network up, get on the list, earn proximity to power, turn one introduction into ten and host tables of your own. It also draws the line between ambition and fakery, because the climb only counts if you can stay once you're up there.
