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.

More quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
Grief affects job performance, so giving workers time off to grieve can lead to stronger outcomes at work.
Sheryl Sandberg
I'm not telling women to be like men. I'm telling us to evaluate what men and women do in the workforce and at home without the gender bias.
Sheryl Sandberg
No one gets to the top, if they sit on the sidelines, or if they don't believe in themselves.
Sheryl Sandberg
We've got to get women to sit at the table.
Sheryl Sandberg
We know that the only way to achieve equality is if both men and women want to achieve equality. We also know that equality is not just the right thing to do for men, it is a good thing to do.
Sheryl Sandberg
Every job will demand some sacrifice. The key is to avoid unnecessary sacrifice.
Sheryl Sandberg
The most important career decision you'll make is who your life partner is.
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.
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.
Sheryl Sandberg
Real empathy is sometimes not insisting that it will be okay but acknowledging that it is not.
Sheryl Sandberg
Trying to do it all and expecting that it all can be done exactly right is a recipe for disappointment. Perfection is the enemy.
Sheryl Sandberg
We need to start talking about child-rearing in the workplace.
Sheryl Sandberg
Sixty-four percent of managers in the U.S. are afraid to be alone in a room with a woman. Mentoring is all about being alone in a room with someone. Let's start talking about this honestly. The lack of equal access is the silent killer for women and no one wants to talk about it.
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
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 reason I don't have a plan is because if I have a plan I'm limited to today's options.
Sheryl Sandberg
I don't hold myself out as a role model. I don't believe that everyone should make the same choices that everyone has to want to be a CEO, or everyone should want to be a work-at-home mother. I want everyone to be able to choose. But I want us to be able to choose unencumbered by gender choosing for us.
Sheryl Sandberg
Every woman I know, particularly the senior ones, has been called too aggressive at work. We know in gender blind studies that men are more aggressive in their offices than women. We know that. Yet we're busy telling all the women that they're too aggressive. That's the issue.
Sheryl Sandberg
I just believed. I believed that the technology would change people's lives. I believed putting real identity online - putting technology behind real identity - was the missing link.
Sheryl Sandberg
We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women’s voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored.
