Lean In

Author: Sheryl Sandberg


Very easy to read book that provides a balanced perspective of what both men and women can do to increase the number of women in the workplace. The general fact that we have too few women in the workplace is well understood. In this book, Sheryl provides an insightful look at some of our society's behavior towards the fairer sex right from when they are little girls playing in a playground. We have some deep-rooted gender biases that Sheryl brings out quite clearly in her book and it has already started a healthy discussion and debate. This is a must-read for both men and women so we can tap into the 50% of the population that we are under-utilizing in our workforce today!
