If you ask men why they did a good job, theyll say, Im awesome. Obviously. Why are you even asking? If you ask women why they did a good job, what theyll say is someone helped them, they got lucky, they worked really hard. – Sheryl Sandberg
I wish I could just go tell all the young women I work with, all these fabulous women, Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success. I wish I could tell that to my daughter. But its not that simple. – Sheryl Sandberg
Women are not making it to the top. A hundred and ninety heads of state nine are women. Of all the people in parliament in the world, thirteen per cent are women. In the corporate sector, women at the top – C-level jobs, board seats – tops out at fifteen, sixteen per cent. – Sheryl Sandberg
So theres no such thing as work-life balance. Theres work, and theres life, and theres no balance. – Sheryl Sandberg
I just get so fed up with seeing the same things written about me. If I see the words ice queen attached to me, I feel like banging my head against the wall. Theres this perception that I can only be in a film if I have a glass of champagne in my hand and a stately home in the background. – Kristin Scott Thomas
