ugh...
Horrible book, but brilliant marketing idea spoon feeding a ridiculous manifesto to women looking for a way to be CEO. Sandberg will make even more money, yay! Some say you need not read this book, you need only to be entitled. My problem with the book is that there is nothing new here. Sandberg's pedigree is what lends her legitimacy to be in a position to "give advice". I have been in corporate America for 20 years and I know total crap when I read it. I know what it's like to work for women like Sandberg. All empowering and team player in speech; barracuda in practice. Lean In? Go Away.
