Sheryl Sandberg is the first woman on Facebook's board of directors who brought changes into the tech-heavy, boys-populated environment. She has been mentioned by the Times Magazine as one of the most influential people on the planet. As the Facebook shares went on sales in May, let's hear some of the Sandberg's thoughts on life:
.
'I walk out of my office every day at 5.30 so I'm home for dinner with my kids. I've been doing that since I had children but it's not until the last year that I've been brave enough to talk about it publicly.'
.
'There is no such thing as work-life balance. There's work, and there's life, and there's no balance'.
.
'I want to tell any young girl out there who is a geek that I was a really serious geek in high school. It works out. Study harder.'
.
I am a geek. And I know many smart girls who are geeks, too. Let's hope it works out for us as well with a bit of an inspiration from Sandberg.
