Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead
Sheryl Sandberg
In Lean In, Sandberg shares her personal stories, uses research to shine a light on gender

to change the conversation from what women can’t do to what we can do, and serves as a rallying cry
for us to work together to create a more equal world.
