Summary

In the fast-pace world of technologies in Silicon Valley, everyone wants to make it big without thinking about the odds. And yet, this can lead to a toxic rat race where no one really wins.

If you have ever felt overwhelmed by work pressure, not being able to balance professional ambition and just living, thinking about impostor syndrome, having a feeling you could always do better, hoping to catch your big break by releasing the greatest product ever, yet not knowing how to deal with the process of delivering, or just being a newcomer to the magic tech kingdom called Silicon Valley, this audiobook is for you. In 1996, Sebastien Taveau landed in the USA for his first big tech job. With stars in his eyes and big dreams, his journey to top technology executive was not the one he had envisioned.

In this candid recollection of experiences, unique moments, but more importantly, of finding his true professional strength, learn some key elements to be successful, even when you are not a company visionary.

The Delivery Man is the story of the invisible crowd who delivers services, products, and experiences for the Big Shot. In the world of fashion, they are called “the Little Hands” (“les Petites Mains”), for these seamstresses turn design drawings into real dresses. And yet, while not often acknowledged, you can make a living of being behind the scenes. It takes just some discipline and a new way to look at things.

In this audiobook, the author shares some of his methodologies to always achieve the delivery of something. While focused on the world of Silicon Valley, it applies to many lines of work. Keep chasing achievable dreams while making a good living.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
