Internalizing the revolution -- The leadership ambition gap : what would you do if you weren't afraid? -- Sit at the table -- Success and likeability -- It's a jungle gym, not a ladder -- Are you my mentor? -- Seek and speak your truth -- Don't leave before you leave -- Make your partner a real partner -- The myth of doing it all -- Let's start talking about it -- Working together toward equality -- Let's keep talking-- .
Summary: Sheryl Sandberg--Facebook COO, ranked eighth on Fortune's list of the 50 Most Powerful Women in Business--has become one of America's most galvanizing leaders, and an icon for millions of women juggling work and family. "Lean In"--Sheryl Sandberg's provocative, inspiring book about women and power--grew out of an electrifying TED talk Sandberg gave in 2010, in which she expressed her concern that progress for women in achieving major leadership positions had stalled. The talk became a phenomenon and has since been viewed nearly two million times. In "Lean In," she fuses humorous personal anecdotes, singular lessons on confidence and leadership, and practical advice for women based on research, data, her own experiences, and the experiences of other women of all ages.
