WHY WE HAVE TOO FEW WOMEN LEADERS Why We Have Too Few Women Leaders In Sheryl Sandberg's TED Talk, "Why We Have Too Few Women Leaders," she addresses the challenges and barriers that women face in advancing to leadership positions in their professions. She presents several key points and offers advice to women to overcome these challenges. Let's compare and contrast the new age thinking presented in the TED Talk and with your own perspective. Gender Disparities: TED Talk : Sheryl Sandberg highlights the gender disparities in leadership positions worldwide, providing statistics and figures to illustrate the under representation of women in high-ranking roles. Your Perspective: You also acknowledge the gender disparities but suggest that the problem might stem from individuals' personalities and attitudes. Work-Life Balance and Parenthood: TED Talk : Sandberg discusses the issue of women often making space for children and becoming less receptive to advancement opportunities. She encourages women not to "leave before they leave." Your Perspective: You seem to agree with the idea that women may prioritize family over career and suggest that they should focus on professional growth instead. Self-Confidence and Celebrating Achievements : TED Talk: Sandberg mentions that women tend to underestimate their skills and may not readily acknowledge and celebrate their achievements, which could hinder their progress. Your Perspective: You agree that women tend to downplay their abilities, which you attribute to their negative mindset. Personal Responsibility : 2
WHY WE HAVE TOO FEW WOMEN LEADERS TED Talk: Sandberg encourages women to take personal responsibility for their career growth and not wait for opportunities to be handed to them. Your Perspective: You emphasize the importance of personal initiative and assert that choices are available to both genders. Partner's Role: TED Talk: Sandberg suggests that women should consider their partners as real partners and that they can provide support in balancing work and family life. Your Perspective: You disagree with Sandberg's view and argue that all partners are real partners, and women should focus on professional growth. In summary, Sheryl Sandberg's TED Talk highlights the challenges women face in achieving leadership positions, offering advice to address these issues. The content from Module 3 and your own perspective appear to touch on some of the same themes, such as work-life balance and self-confidence, but your perspective suggests that the solution may lie more in individual attitudes and initiative. Sandberg's perspective emphasizes the importance of societal and structural changes to address gender disparities in leadership. 3
