Lean In

In this international bestseller, Sheryl Sandberg explores why the advancement of women into top leadership positions remains limited and considers the underlying factors behind this divide. Drawing upon research, hard data and her own professional experiences as chief operating officer of Facebook, she examines the unique obstacles working women encounter.

Rather than settling for outdated conventions, the author outlines actionable steps for women seeking to build fulfilling careers without compromising personal well-being. She addresses key professional topics such as negotiation methods, seeking mentorship, establishing healthy boundaries, and overcoming self-doubt in workplace settings. Sandberg also highlights the crucial role men play in advancing gender balance, both within professional organisations and in family life.

Thoughtful, encouraging and practical, this book provides a constructive framework for anyone interested in leadership development, workplace equality and personal achievement.
