雪姨的新书来啦!
《Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead》by Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg
之前看过Sheryl在2012HBS毕业典礼的演讲,就被这个台风稳健、风趣幽默、逻辑清楚的女人吸引住啦。后来又去看了她2010年在TED的演讲,也觉得非常有启发性。
今年雪姨终于集书出版就第一时间买来看。读完全书,文风比想象中的言简意赅,但也都能切中要害。语言还是不改她的小幽默同时将她的自身经理与她的这些经验和鼓舞穿插在一起。管它是不是雪姨打算弃商从政的第一步,读来自己还是受益匪浅的。
尤其其中她关于Career is a jungle jam rather than a ladder还有mentorship的观点,真的很有启发。
所以想分享给大家。如果你暂时没时间读这么一本书,强烈推荐先看一下她在TED的演讲,基本涵盖了书一般的内容。

Introduction (quoted from 豆瓣):
Thirty years after women became 50 percent of the college graduates in the United States, men still hold the vast majority of leadership positions in government and industry. This means that women’s voices are still not heard equally in the decisions that most affect our lives. In Lean In, Sheryl Sandberg examines why women’s progress in achieving leadership roles has stalled, explains the root causes, and offers compelling, commonsense solutions that can empower women to achieve their full potential.
Sandberg is the chief operating officer of Facebook and is ranked on Fortune ’s list of the 50 Most Powerful Women in Business and as one of Time ’s 100 Most Influential People in the World. In 2010, she gave an electrifying TEDTalk in which she described how women unintentionally hold themselves back in their careers. Her talk, which became a phenomenon and has been viewed more than two million times, encouraged women to “sit at the table,” seek challenges, take risks, and pursue their goals with gusto.
In Lean In, Sandberg digs deeper into these issues, combining personal anecdotes, hard data, and compelling research to cut through the layers of ambiguity and bias surrounding the lives and choices of working women. She recounts her own decisions, mistakes, and daily struggles to make the right choices for herself, her career, and her family. She provides practical advice on negotiation techniques, mentorship, and building a satisfying career, urging women to set boundaries and to abandon the myth of “having it all.” She describes specific steps women can take to combine professional achievement with personal fulfillment and demonstrates how men can benefit by supporting women in the workplace and at home.
Written with both humor and wisdom , Sandberg’s book is an inspiring call to action and a blueprint for individual growth. Lean In is destined to change the conversation from what women can’t do to what they can.
