Read thousands of books's series "Be Your Queen: Sandberg's Charming Life"
1On August 26th, 969, Sandberg was born in an ordinary family in Washington. His father is a doctor and his mother is a teacher. Jews have a tradition that their ethnic origin follows their mother. Sandberg's mother is Jewish, so she is also Jewish.
Jewish families attach great importance to children's education and encourage them to study and think independently. Sandberg thrived in this atmosphere. 1987, she was admitted to Harvard University with an average score of 4.646 in an ordinary public middle school that ridiculed learning "nerds". The idea of thinking independently and not going with the flow stems from the wisdom of the Jewish nation.
Sandberg met Bole and her tutor lawrence summers during her college years, which had a great influence on her. Summers, also a Jew, became the youngest professor in Harvard history at the age of 28. Under the guidance of her tutor, she is a top student, striving for perfection as always. Winning the Excellent Graduate Award in Economics has brought a satisfactory end to the four-year university life.
199 1 Sandberg When he graduated, his mentor Summers went to the World Bank in Washington, D.C., and served as vice president and chief economist of development economics. Summers took a fancy to Sandberg's ability and talent and chose her as his assistant. With the help of the tutor, Sandberg can be said to have a high starting point after graduation.
In the same year, Sandberg did not get rid of the Jewish family concept, and under the nagging and influence of his parents, he entered the marriage hall. However, this marriage ended in failure in less than a year. Sandberg got rid of his emotional troubles and embarked on the road of studying again. 1992, Sandberg joined Harvard Business School shortly after allowing women to enter school.
1995, 26-year-old Sandberg received an MBA from Harvard Business School. During this period, while studying at Harvard Business School, she served as a consultant for McKinsey & Company as an economist of the World Bank. After receiving his degree, Sandberg officially entered McKinsey & Company. I thought there would be better development, but what I got was indifference. Because McKinsey was full of talented people, and the workplace at that time was really unfair and biased against women. Soon after, Sandberg found himself not suitable for research, but better at business and decision-making.
1996, she received an invitation from her mentor summers. At this time, Summers has become the Deputy Minister of Finance in the Clinton administration. Teacher-student relationship, heterosexual relationship, superior-subordinate relationship. Divorced at the age of 25, he followed his mentor all the way and became his chief "staff". For a time, gossip and personal attacks came to the fore, accompanied by the end of the Clinton administration. Sandberg's heart has experienced numerous blows, which has tempered her strong heart and tenacious character.
Jews have been persecuted by the nation, so the Jewish nation has a tradition of keeping a low profile and forbearing, and does not want to be too smart. Sandberg has always been bound by this tradition, never saying how many scholarships he has won and how many honors he has won. On the one hand, we strive to pursue academic and career achievements, on the other hand, we try to hide our talents. After several years of work and training, she knows that the only way to break this discrimination and insult to women is to prove her talent. She will break the influence of national tradition and start a dazzling life.
Cyrus said, "Career is a trellis, not a ladder". Sandberg agrees very much. Career is not a "ladder" erected from bottom to top, but a "lattice frame" composed of countless ladders. The world is changing, and so are human beings. If you want to succeed, you need to follow the pace of change and keep pace with the times. You can't always stick to the rules and seek breakthroughs. The work of the Ministry of Finance made her see the general trend of the Internet, and she decided to enter Silicon Valley and the Internet.
This kind of cross-border is not easy. In 200 1 year, Sandberg, who spent a year looking for a job, finally got the favor of Google and became the first "general manager of the business department" of Google. From the work carried out after receiving instructions to groundbreaking work, from the rigid working atmosphere of the government to the relaxed and free working atmosphere of the Internet. Sandberg can no longer hide his talent. She needs to gradually transform herself and prove her worth.
After 7 years of running-in and experience, Sandberg became the vice president of online sales of Google. During this period, she created the "Google Women's Channel" to fight for parking spaces for pregnant women. While achieving success in her career, she also became a public figure who shouted for women's rights.
In 2007, after giving birth to her second child, Sandberg was ready to look for a new position. At that time, Zuckerberg, also a Jew, was looking for a chief operating officer to solve the operation problem of Facebook. The two hit it off at first sight and finally got to know each other through a "dinner interview" for one and a half months.
Since March 2008, Sandberg has become the woman behind Zuckerberg, finding a business direction for Facebook and holding up half the sky of Facebook. Customized advertising services such as AdWords and AdSense have helped Facebook earn hundreds of millions of yuan in a short time from a startup that can't leave.
As of this year, Facebook's annual income has reached more than 70 billion US dollars. From 7,000 users in the initial stage to more than 3 billion users today, Sandberg has contributed a lot. Sandberg finally broke the bondage of national traditional culture to women, overcame the discrimination against women in the workplace and became a confident and strong woman.
Sandberg's mother gave up her job because of family needs. Take care of the family full-time and raise three children. Sandberg also experienced doubts, discrimination and insults in the workplace. However, with the progress of the times and the change of human ideology, women's rights have been liberated to some extent.
Sandberg's second marriage was very happy and got her husband's support and understanding. She broke the bondage that women need to obey their families unconditionally, and proved that women are not worse than men with practical actions. She once said that "if women don't work, GDP will decline". She encourages women all over the world to be confident, dare to pursue and dare to express their inner thoughts.
20 1 1 In August, Sandberg ranked fifth in Forbes' list of the most influential women. In 20 15, she came to Beijing, China, and delivered a speech at the graduation ceremony of Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management, conveying the idea of "taking a step forward". She used China's proverb-"Women hold up half the sky" to express women's social status.
In fact, both men and women are indispensable to both the ancient matriarchal society and today's social form. The so-called patriarchy and feminism are only ideological changes. Research shows that the self-motivation and willpower of men and women are inversely proportional to the growth of age. Due to the influence of social ideology, women's self-motivation and willpower in the workplace will become weaker and weaker. And men will get stronger and stronger.
If more women can get rid of the influence of this ideology, unfair treatment and rules, they can change their status. Therefore, Sandberg called on women to "step forward", bravely pursue themselves, develop a strong heart and be their own queen.
Some people say that she is very lucky. When she was going to study for an MBA, Harvard Business School had just opened women's admission; When she needed a job, the tutor directly gave her a position that everyone could reach. When she needed to take care of her family, she met Dave who loved and understood her.
On the surface, but "luck" takes effort. Sandberg has both female sensibility and male rationality. She has no super-high technology and talent beyond ordinary people. With unremitting efforts and the belief of "step forward", she has been reused and loved by her life mentor, held the position of enterprise executive, and won the respect and trust of her boss and employees.
She infected people around her with faith and passion, and coordinated the operation of the company with communication skills, negotiation skills and management skills. These are the foundations of her luck. "Obviously, she can eat by her face value, but she proves herself with strength." This is the secret of her controlling her charming life.
