Do not be afraid to act: a woman, work and will to leadership. Sandberg Sh., Skovell N.

The world of business dictates to women certain unspoken rules. You should not unnecessarily demonstrate your mind and strong -willed qualities. Do not show your ambitions and the desire to advance up the career ladder. In addition, women restrain their own, internal barriers. There are hundreds of really good reasons why women put a cross in their career. They do not allow themselves to move forward due to a lack of self-confidence, unwillingness to pay excessive attention, because of a constant dilemma, which is more important-a career or family, due to a pathological lack of time. As a result, today only 4% of the leaders of leading world companies are women. Cheryl Sandberg, operating director of Facebook, one of the most influential figures in the world of business, tells what obstacles she had to face on her professional path.

This book is a manifesto and a source of inspiration for those who believe that a woman can and has the right to seek self -realization in career and business, and family relations should be built on the basis of equal partnership. The book is full of practical tips on how to find the right balance between the family and the career and how to overcome the fears that prevent women from going forward.
