Let's have an honest conversation about what's going on. A man and a man at a bar looks like mentoring. A man and a woman at a bar looks like dating.
Sheryl Sandberg

The most important thing we're doing differently is that we talk openly about gender at Facebook.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
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.

We need to start talking about child-rearing in the workplace.

You need to feel that you're making a difference.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
I wish I were strong enough to ignore what others say, but experience tells me I often can't. Allowing myself to feel upset, even really upset, and then move on - that's something I can do.

I want my daughter to have the choice not just to succeed, but to be liked for her accomplishments.

But I really believe that when you give people authentic identity, which is what Facebook does, and you can be your real self and connect with real people online, things will change.

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.

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.

If you do please everyone, you are not making enough progress.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
There's a lot that needs to be fixed in dating for men and women in the U.S. - there's a lot of pressure on women to do things they may not want to do. And if you start out unequal, you are not going to end up with equality.
Sheryl Sandberg

We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
Speak up. Believe in yourself. Take risks.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
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
Image
Fortune does favor the bold and you'll never know what you're capable of if you don't try.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
Being confident and believing in your own self-worth is necessary to achieving your potential.
Sheryl Sandberg

And anyway, who wears a tiara on a jungle gym?

People assume Wall Street is a certain culture and tech is a certain culture. But if you look at the (gender) numbers at the top of (those) industries, they don't vary very much. I think in finance, women hold 19 percent of the top jobs, and women are 21 percent of the leaders in nonprofits.

The reason I don't have a plan is because if I have a plan I'm limited to today's options.
