Lean In

Chief Operating Officer, Sheryl Sandberg of Facebook  has gotten a lot of attention recently for new practice of “Lean-In Circles”. The purpose of these groups of women getting together to talk about when they “leaned in” or didn’t in the work place. A group of woman get together to inspire one another. Considered a new type of club, “Oprah session” and corporate pep talk.

I saw this article on Bloomberg Business week, along with a section of Cosmo. I think it is a great idea to have a book club sort of meeting where you reflect with other woman in the same positions as yourself, and how you could be a better employee. While the norm of more women working in a men’s world, I think it is important for women to reflect on their jobs, and allowing themselves to reflect with other successful women where they could have done better in their job, and where they did do well.

Do you think it is important for woman to be working together to make a stand in a man’s world?
