More quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
If you do please everyone, you are not making enough progress.
Sheryl Sandberg
Success and likeability are positively correlated for men and negatively for women. When a man is successful, he is liked by both men and women. When a woman is successful, people of both genders like her less.
Sheryl Sandberg
No one gets to the top, if they sit on the sidelines, or if they don't believe in themselves.
Sheryl Sandberg
I tell people in their careers, 'Look for growth. Look for the teams that are growing quickly. Look for the companies that are doing well. Look for a place where you feel that you can have a lot of impact.'
Sheryl Sandberg
The best decision I ever made was to marry Dave.
Sheryl Sandberg
Communication starts with the understanding that there is my point of view (my truth) and someone else's point of view (his truth). Rarely is there one absolute truth, so people who believe that they speak the truth are very silencing of others.
Sheryl Sandberg
I've seen over and over how much self-belief drives outcomes. And that's why I force myself to sit at the table, even when I am not sure I belong there - and yes, this still happens to me. And when I'm not sure anyone wants my opinion, I take a deep breath and speak up anyway.
Sheryl Sandberg
It is the ultimate luxury to combine passion and contribution. It's also a very clear path to happiness.
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 it's not that simple.
Sheryl Sandberg
I have never worked for a woman, and I have never worked with a lot of women.
Sheryl Sandberg
I'm not writing about things other women do. I'm writing for other women to have more self-confidence because I need it myself! And if more women were in power, I would feel more comfortable.
Sheryl Sandberg
I want women to get paid more. I want to teach them to negotiate so they get paid more.
Sheryl Sandberg
We know when we use the full talents of our population we're more productive. And we know that when people really feel like they can have flexible lives, they're better employees.
Sheryl Sandberg
Build your skills, not your resume.
Sheryl Sandberg
Without fear, women can pursue professional success and personal fulfillment-and freely choose one, or the other, or both.
Sheryl Sandberg
Don't be afraid to ask the 'dumb' question, everyone else will be relieved you had the guts to ask!
Sheryl Sandberg
We've got to get women to sit at the table.
Sheryl Sandberg
We have a problem with women in leadership across the board. This leadership gap - this problem of not enough women in leadership - is running really deep and it's in every industry. My answer is we have to understand the stereotype assumptions that hold women back.
Sheryl Sandberg
And what I saw happening is that women don't 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
Grief affects job performance, so giving workers time off to grieve can lead to stronger outcomes at work.
