Fawn Germer

Fawn Germer once had a bosshole (you read that right) tell her she’d never be more than she was at the time – a reporter. She sure showed him. Fawn is the irreverent, beloved best-selling author of nine books including the Oprah book, Hard Won Wisdom. She has been a keynote speaker for more than 80 Fortune 500 companies and was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize four times. Fawn’s first book was rejected by every major publisher in the United States, but Fawn would not give up until it was the No. 1 nonfiction bestseller that Oprah loved. Her latest book, Coming Back! How to Win the Job You Want When You’ve Lost the Job You Need shows how to turbocharge your career with a quick injection of relevance. Why do so many careers sputter out midstream? Fawn shows how to get back on track if you have been sidelined or cast out. She interviewed more than 300 CEOs, senior executives, academics, workplace experts, and professionals to find out how to maintain momentum and viability.
