In Corporate Rebel, Sadika Fakir delivers a fearless, funny, no-BS guide to surviving and thriving inside systems that profit from womens ambition while quietly diminishing it.

From unpaid gigs and free consulting to boardrooms, breakdowns, bad bosses and even worse job offers and finally rising to senior leadership Sadika tells it like it actually is. She has lived the contradictions of corporate life and is done pretending that hard work alone is enough. No corporate jargon. No girl-boss clichs. Just hard-won lessons, sharp humour and radical honesty about what it really takes to be a woman at work.

This isnt a glossy lean in manifesto or a confidence pep talk. Its real strategy: how power actually works, why ego derails careers, when working for free is a trap, and how to stop playing small without burning everything down.

Because sometimes being a corporate rebel means knowing when to break the rules, when to rewrite them, and when to laugh at how ridiculous they were in the first place.

Funny, fierce, deeply human and refreshingly unpolished, Corporate Rebel is for every woman whos ever felt invisible in the room and decided she wasnt going to stay that way.

This is not a career manual. Its a rebellion.
