Dame Stephanie 'Steve' Shirley CH Let It Go: My Extraordinary Story
In 1962, Stephanie ‘Steve’ Shirley created a software company when the concept of software barely existed, employing women to work from home on complex projects such as Concorde’s black box recorder. She empowered a generation of women in technology, giving them unheard of freedom to choose their own hours and manage their own workloads. She gradually transferred ownership to her staff, creating 70 millionaires in the process. Meet this extraordinary entrepreneur and philanthropist as she charts her incredible personal story including her dramatic arrival in England as an unaccompanied Kindertransport refugee during World War Two and the tragic loss of her only child who suffered severely from autism.
