Audio Book Summary

#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • “A landmark manifesto' (The New York Times) that's a revelatory, inspiring call to action and a blueprint for individual growth that will empower women around the world to achieve their full potential. 

In her famed TED talk, Sheryl Sandberg described how women unintentionally hold themselves back in their careers. Her talk, which has been viewed more than eleven million times, encouraged women to “sit at the table,” seek challenges, take risks, and pursue their goals with gusto. 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, COO of Meta (previously called Facebook) from 2008-2022, provides practical advice on negotiation techniques, mentorship, and building a satisfying career. She describes specific steps women can take to combine professional achievement with personal fulfillment, and demonstrates how men can benefit by supporting women both in the workplace and at home.

    I am a young professional and can only recommend this book. (Sheryl's Ted talk gives you a good first impression.) While listening to this book I adjusted my own behaviour at work and probably more important: I can recognize and thereby challenge some of the stereotypes within me that hold both me and others back.

    Great insight. Although geared a more towards mothers VS young pro on the advice. The key learning though is important and relevant for all age groups, especially younger women to be aware of certain issues that might arise in their future

    I liked how they made it for anyone to listen to and be relatable. I’m implementing what I took away from this book already.
