Lean In

240 pages, 2013

Takeaways
Description
Sheryl Sandberg reignited the conversation around women at work. Sandberg has worked for Google and Facebook and is the chief operating officer for Facebook. In 2010, she gave an electrifying TED talk about how women unintentionally hold themselves back in their careers. Her talk, which has been viewed more than six million times, encouraged women to “sit at the table,” seek challenges, take risks, and pursue their goals with gusto. Her book Lean In continues that conversation, combining personal anecdotes, hard data, and compelling research to change the conversation from what women can’t do to what they can. Sandberg provides practical advice on negotiation techniques and how men can support women both at home and in the workplace while still being a man.
