The recent controversy surrounding the release of former Meta employee Sarah Wynn-Williams’s book Careless People, which details her time as a director of public policy at the company, and the subsequent swift actions of Meta to prevent Wynn-Williams from speaking about her book has raised an important conversation on how far companies will go to silence employees. Some are hailing Wynn-Williams as a whistleblower. However, there is an argument to be made that that classification doesn’t apply due to both the length of the elapsed time between speaking out and when the events occurred as well as the limited impact of her revelations. That said, her story has renewed interest in whistleblowers. In an age where companies are increasingly escalating collective bad behavior, whistleblowers need to know who to turn to and their rights.
Enter The Signals Network, whose stated mission is to hold power accountable, one whistleblower at a time. Led by former journalist Delphine Halgand-Mishra, The Signals Network takes an innovative approach to helping whistleblowers tell their stories. Combining Halgand-Mishra’s journalist background with a network of lawyers and mental health resources creates a holistic bank of resources for whistleblowers. The company is backed by some big names in the whistleblowing world, too. For example, Edward Snowdon has provided a testimonial, and Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz is on the board.
