Sheryl Sandberg Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Sheryl Sandberg:

If you ask men why they did a good job, they'll say, 'I'm awesome. Obviously. Why are you even asking?' If you ask women why they did a good job, what they'll say is someone helped them, they got lucky, they worked really hard.

People think that women don't negotiate because they're not good negotiators, but that's not it. Women don't negotiate because it doesn't work as well for them. Women have to say, 'I really add a lot of value, and it's in your interest to pay me more.' I hate that advice, but I want to see women get ahead.

Sheryl Sandberg

We call our little girls bossy. Go to a playground; little girls get called bossy all the time - a word that's almost never used for boys - and that leads directly to the problems women face in the workforce.

Sheryl Sandberg

Every company I know is looking for more women at the table. Every board is looking for more women at the table. There's a reason why men want to understand the challenges women face, address them, because then they're going to be better hirers, attracters and retainers of women.

Sheryl Sandberg

Most people assume that women are responsible for households and child care. Most couples operate that way - not all. That fundamental assumption holds women back.

Sheryl Sandberg

We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women's voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored.

Sheryl Sandberg

I believe very deeply that the world would be a better place if it weren't run as it's currently run, which is by men.

Sheryl Sandberg

When my mother took her turn to sit in a gown at her graduation, she thought she only had two career options: nursing and teaching. She raised me and my sister to believe that we could do anything, and we believed her.

Sheryl Sandberg

Women are not making it to the top. A hundred and ninety heads of state; nine are women. Of all the people in parliament in the world, thirteen per cent are women. In the corporate sector, women at the top - C-level jobs, board seats - tops out at fifteen, sixteen per cent.

Sheryl Sandberg

I think when tragedy occurs, it presents a choice. You can give in to the void: the emptiness that fills your heart, your lungs, constricts your ability to think or even breathe. Or you can try to find meaning.

Sheryl Sandberg

And what I saw happening is that women don't make one decision to leave the workforce. They makes lots of little decisions really far in advance that kind of inevitably lead them there.

Sheryl Sandberg

I spent most of my career in business not saying the word 'woman.' Because if you say the word 'woman' in a business context, and often in a political context, the person on the other side of the table thinks you're about to sue them or ask for special treatment, right?

Sheryl Sandberg

We've got to get women to sit at the table.

Sheryl Sandberg

I would be better at my job if I were technical.

Sheryl Sandberg

There are really good reasons to leave the workforce or work less or take a different job when you want to be with your children. I just want women - and men - to make that choice once they have the child. Not years in advance, because... they don't get the right opportunities. They give up before they even start.

Sheryl Sandberg

False news hurts everyone. It hurts our community; it hurts us as individuals.

Sheryl Sandberg

Women don't take enough risks. Men are just 'foot on the gas pedal.' We're not going to close the achievement gap until we close the ambition gap.

Sheryl Sandberg

I really think we need more women to lean into their careers and to be really dedicated to staying in the work force.

Sheryl Sandberg

People who are underprivileged have more to grieve and have more to overcome.

Sheryl Sandberg

Over the last 10 years, women have stalled out at the top.

Sheryl Sandberg

I don't pretend there aren't biological differences, but I don't believe the desire for leadership is hardwired biology, not the desire to win or excel. I believe that it's socialization, that we're socializing our daughters to nurture and our boys to lead.

Sheryl Sandberg

I go around the room and ask people, 'What do you think?'

Sheryl Sandberg

I think we build resilience to prepare for whatever adversity we'll face. And we all face some adversity - we're all living some form of Option B.

Sheryl Sandberg

I don't hold myself out as a role model. I don't believe that everyone should make the same choices; that everyone has to want to be a CEO, or everyone should want to be a work-at-home mother. I want everyone to be able to choose. But I want us to be able to choose unencumbered by gender choosing for us.

Sheryl Sandberg

If you ask men why they did a good job, they'll say, 'I'm awesome. Obviously. Why are you even asking?' If you ask women why they did a good job, what they'll say is someone helped them, they got lucky, they worked really hard.

Sheryl Sandberg

We need to create areas to come together, where we can be there for each other.

Sheryl Sandberg

I wish I could just go tell all the young women I work with, all these fabulous women, 'Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success.' I wish I could tell that to my daughter. But it's not that simple.

Sheryl Sandberg

We have to work on treating ourselves like we would treat our friends.

Sheryl Sandberg

We all have shortcomings.

Sheryl Sandberg

Women are not making it to the top of any profession in the world. But when I say, 'The blunt truth is that men run the world,' people say, 'Really?' That, to me, is the problem.

Sheryl Sandberg

When you're more valuable, the people around you will do more to make it work.

Sheryl Sandberg

Our discomfort with female leadership runs deep. We call little girls bossy. We never really call little boys bossy, because a boy is expected to lead, so it doesn't surprise or offend.

Sheryl Sandberg

The No. 1 impediment to women succeeding in the workforce is now in the home.

Sheryl Sandberg

I don't believe we have a professional self Monday through Friday and a real self the rest of the time. It is all professional, and it is all personal.

Sheryl Sandberg

I probably shouldn't admit this since I work in the tech industry, but I still prefer reading paper books.

Sheryl Sandberg

I have never worked for a woman, and I have never worked with a lot of women.

Sheryl Sandberg

I have a five year-old son and a three year-old daughter. I want my son to have a choice to contribute fully in the workforce or at home. And I want my daughter to have the choice to not just succeed, but to be liked for her accomplishments.
