Who is Sheryl Sandberg? What is Sheryl Sandberg’s message? (Summarize the three)
What was the most effective example that Sheryl Sandberg used to prove or support her point?
What personal message are you taking for yourself? Why? How does her message affect how you view yourself and your life?
Sheryl Sandberg, the chief operating officer of Facebook, made a speech about women. She wanted women to have equal opportunities to have high positions at work like men. She believes that women can get high positions, but she announced that most women do not have confidence about themselves or others do not have confidence in them, so she suggested three points. The first thing was ‘Sit at the table.’ It means that the women need to catch opportunities. For example, if there is a meeting in the office, they should tell their ideas instead of saying nothing. Then they can show their abilities. The other thing was ‘Be a real partner.’ It represents that women need to share the housework with their partners. For instance, if a child is sick, why does the mother need to be absent all the time? Husband and wife need to share, give chances and respect each other. The last thing was ‘Do not leave before you leave.’ Most women do not try hard to get a career because they think that in the future they have to quit their jobs anyway because of children or other things. However, even if they get married, they can still keep their jobs. They just need to know how to balance the different kinds of work with their partner.
For me, the most effective example was when she talked about going to the bathroom when she had a meeting in a company. When she asked for the bathroom, an owner did not know where the girl’s bathroom was. How come the owner could not know the direction of the girl’s bathroom? It shows the favoritism between women and men because maybe he cannot remember things about women, or women never go there to give a speech, only men are chosen.
Through this speech, I realized that men and women need to be treated equally. When she used the example of the successful woman whose story was studied by students, I realized that people think better of men even though their life story is the same. In my opinion, if people think in that way, women need to be more confident about themselves. However, even women think that men are better than them when it comes to jobs. The speech made me think that this attitude needs to change. As you can experience, you can notice that most companies’ supervisors are men and it affected me to challenge myself. My dream is to become a hotel manger, but usually, hotel managers are men and I will try to prove people we can work as same as men.
Sheryl Sandberg’s speech effectively taught me that women everywhere need to challenge themselves and challenge the thinking nowadays to make the truth come out. The truth is, women also have good abilities and they can do the same jobs as men with the same quality. I now think I need to try harder to make this happen.
