7/7/2023 0 Comments Sandberg lean in summary![]() ![]() It's not so much a career ladder as it is a jungle gym. Sandberg quotes Pattie Sellers, Editor at Large at Fortune Magazine, who offers a much better metaphor – think of it as a jungle gym. ![]() And the view of someone looking up from the bottom of a ladder is… less than ideal. One enlightening point Sandberg makes early in the book is that the common metaphor of thinking of climbing the “corporate ladder” is the wrong way to look at it. Throughout the course of a captivating and insightful book, Sandberg explores not only the challenges of leading as a woman in the work place, but also shares her thoughts on how current leadership could do better to provide equality for all, and offers strong words of encouragement and guidance for those who are actively leading. Authored by Sheryl Sandberg, formerly a vice president at Google and now Chief Operating Officer at Facebook, I found it to be an interesting, edifying, and very worthwhile read. One of the more recent and popular entries to the long list of good leadership books was Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead. ![]()
