Full title: Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead
This was a good pick to read on the plane during a business trip; the first book I checked out from the library in ebook format. I've seen a lot of pushback against the ideas in this book, but honestly, they're just ideas, and they're good ones. Nowhere does Sandberg advocate for ALL women to "lean in" to their careers, and she does acknowledge her own significant privilege of being able to do so while ensuring her family is cared for. I thought she expressed a lot of things about gender in the workplace that I hadn't seen elsewhere before, and I really appreciated her strong voice. I enjoyed this (even if it did make me feel all jazzed about corporate advancement).
(A note I found in my goodreads related to this book: Check out this article about Sandberg's book: http://jezebel.com/5990188/sheryl-sandberg-on-why-its-ok-to-cry-at-work - I'm really interested to read this.)
