About this listen
“The Cost of Silence” is a modern parable about a seasoned professional, Jacob, who joins thriving tech firm CDS and collides with a subtle, suffocating culture where efficiency and usefulness outrank truth. Through the small but telling choices of his manager, Danielle, Jacob learns how silence becomes a weapon, how quiet performers are sidelined by louder politics, and how personal cuts hide behind policy.
This story mirrors what many experience in toxic workplaces, exposing the tactics that marginalize capable people and the damage a metrics-first mindset inflicts on meaning, innovation, and integrity. It equips listeners to spot and confront environments that stifle authenticity and invites quiet performers and truth-tellers to reclaim their voice and value. If you have been overlooked, pushed aside, or worn down by unspoken corporate truths, this book will resonate and help you count the cost, name what is happening, and move forward with clarity.
