Private Equity: A Memoir (book)

The former executive assistant of Chase Coleman, the founder and CEO of Tiger Global, wrote a memoir about her time in that role.

It’s not a “tell all” - if anything she goes out of her way multiple times to say that Chase treated her well, and is (roughly) as good as one can be for a billionaire.

I assume she felt bad for writing something about someone who goes far out of his way to protect his privacy?

It felt like a book written by someone with all the talent & opportunity in the world but who still doesn’t know what to do with their life.
