ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead by Sheryl Sandberg explores the challenges women face in achieving leadership roles and advancing in their careers. Drawing from her own experiences, Sandberg examines both internal and external barriers that limit women’s potential, such as societal expectations, gender biases, and self-doubt. She advocates for women to embrace ambition, take risks, and "lean in" to leadership opportunities. The book also delves into the importance of mentorship, partnerships, and work-life balance, calling for a societal shift toward gender equality in both professional and personal spheres. It is a motivational and thought-provoking call for change.
