More quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
It's pretty exciting to take real people living in the real world, their opinions, and have people have to react to that. As opposed to their perceptions of what people are thinking, which are often very different.
Sheryl Sandberg
Most people assume that women are responsible for households and child care. Most couples operate that way - not all. That fundamental assumption holds women back.
Sheryl Sandberg
Give us a world where half our homes are run by men and half our institutions are run by women. I'm pretty sure that would be a better world.
Sheryl Sandberg
Your life's course will not be determined by doing the things that you are certain you can do. Those are the easy things. It will be determined by whether you try the things that are hard.
Sheryl Sandberg
As a country and as a world, we are not comfortable with women in leadership roles. We call little girls bossy.
Sheryl Sandberg
The best way to make room for both life and career is to make choices deliberately-to set limits and stick to them.
Sheryl Sandberg
Social gains are never handed out. They must be seized.
Sheryl Sandberg
Getting from point A to point Z can be daunting unless you remember that you don’t have to get from A to Z. You just have to get from A to B. Breaking big dreams into small steps is the way to move forward.
Sheryl Sandberg
All of us want the same things. We want to be good to the people around us and for our lives to have meaning. For me that means making the world a little bit easier for women.
Sheryl Sandberg
The most important thing is to have a more open and honest dialogue about gender issues.
Sheryl Sandberg
A lot of people will say, what's Facebook's business model? I always find that a kind of funny question. Our business model is out there, which is: we monetize largely through advertising and a little bit through the gift revenue, the virtual gifts we have on our site. I think those continue to be the most promising avenues going forward.
Sheryl Sandberg
Facebook is great for women and men. We are enormously flexible. We care a lot about great opportunities for women, we push ourselves to make things as flexible as possible.
Sheryl Sandberg
Let's acknowledge that men reach for opportunities more quickly and more easily than women. So often as managers, we give the job to whoever starts solving the problem, to whoever jumps in. Since we know men will jump in faster than women in so many circumstances, we have to slow down and encourage more women to sit at more tables.
Sheryl Sandberg
We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change.
Sheryl Sandberg
I'm a feminist because I believe in women... it's a heavy word, feminism, but it's not one I think we should run from. I'm proud to be a feminist.
Sheryl Sandberg
If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat! Just get on.
Sheryl Sandberg
Framing the issue of work-life balance - as if the two were dramatically opposed - practically ensures work will lose out. Who would ever choose work over life?
Sheryl Sandberg
I have never worked for a woman, and I have never worked with a lot of women.
Sheryl Sandberg
I really think we need more women to lean into their careers and to be really dedicated to staying in the work force.
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.
