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.

The No. 1 impediment to women succeeding in the workforce is now in the home.

The best decision I ever made was to marry Dave.

Endless data show that diverse teams make better decisions. We are building products that people with very diverse backgrounds use, and I think we all want our company makeup to reflect the makeup of the people who use our products. That's not true of any industry really, and we have a long way to go.

Real empathy is sometimes not insisting that it will be okay but acknowledging that it is not.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
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.

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.

We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
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
Image
There is no perfect fit when you're looking for the next big thing to do. You have to take opportunities and make an opportunity fit for you, rather than the other way around. The ability to learn is the most important quality a leader can have.
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.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
Don't make decisions too far in advance, particularly ones you're not even conscious you're making.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
I want women to get paid more. I want to teach them to negotiate so they get paid more.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
Leaders should strive for authenticity over perfection.
Sheryl Sandberg
Image
When it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. Someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated, and ambitious.
Sheryl Sandberg

The most important thing is to have a more open and honest dialogue about gender issues.
