Talking can transform minds, which can transform behaviors, which can transform institutions.
Sheryl Sandberg

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.

I really think we need more women to lean into their careers and to be really dedicated to staying in the work force.

Don't make decisions too far in advance, particularly ones you're not even conscious you're making.

My hope in writing 'Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead' was to change the conversation from what women can't do to what we can.

We need to stop telling [women], Get a mentor and you will excel. Instead, we need to tell them, Excel and you will get a mentor.

Sheryl Sandberg

When the man is traveling with a man, he says, Let's stay up late and work on this and get this to be better. When the man's traveling with the woman, for the sake of appearances he doesn't do the work with her. That's a lost opportunity for her to be a success.

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.

What works for men does not always work for women, because success and likability are positively correlated for men and negatively correlated for women. That's what the research shows. As a man gets more successful, everyone is rooting for him. As a woman gets more successful, both men and women like her less.

In fact, my New Year's resolution every year, and I'm Jewish so I get two New Years a year, is to meditate, and I fail every time.
Sheryl Sandberg

I want women to get paid more. I want to teach them to negotiate so they get paid more.
Sheryl Sandberg

There are really good reasons to leave the workforce or work less or take a different job when you want to be with your children. I just want women - and men - to make that choice once they have the child. Not years in advance, because... they don't get the right opportunities. They give up before they even start.

If you do please everyone, you are not making enough progress.

I have never worked for a woman, and I have never worked with a lot of women.
