For any of us in this room today, lets start out by admitting were lucky. We dont live in the world our mothers lived in, our grandmothers lived in, where career choices for women were so limited. – Sheryl Sandberg
And what I saw happening is that women dont make one decision to leave the workforce. They makes lots of little decisions really far in advance that kind of inevitably lead them there. – Sheryl Sandberg
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 have a five year-old son and a three year-old daughter. I want my son to have a choice to contribute fully in the workforce or at home. And I want my daughter to have the choice to not just succeed, but to be liked for her accomplishments. – Sheryl Sandberg
