Women and power. Women in leadership. No one has talked about these subjects in such an accessible and conversational way as Sheryl Sandberg, Chief Operating Officer of Facebook. She's young, beautiful, brilliant and one of the most powerful women in businessanywhere in the world. Women in business with ambition and talent face obstacles that we think about every day: our children, our marriages, our families. It's not about having it allor doing it all. It's more complicated and involves the support of business and of family. It's more complicated because it involves embracing challenge and going for goals. And everyone benefits. Sandberg's new book is Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead.
