Sheryl Sandberg can be a feminist if she wants to be!

In 2013, Sheryl Sandberg offered the world “a bible for the feminist businesswoman”, who wanted to break the glass ceiling. The book, entitled Lean In, became a bestseller. Five years later, it’s still the talk of women’s support groups. In essence, the author urges women to lead rather than follow. She urges them to seize the reins of power and take their place.

Whether you like Sheryl Sandberg or not, everyone recognizes her role in the emancipation of women in the workplace. But Sandberg’s brand of feminism has never been unanimous. Some hate her, others don’t even consider her a feminist, or talk about her feminism being too “white” or too “corporate”.

Sheryl Sandberg is probably the best-known woman in technology in the world, with Marissa Mayer, the former CEO of Yahoo, having disappeared from the radar. She’s Facebook’s number two, and usually the one you think of when you’re looking to name a powerful woman in business. In recent years, she has been almost as visible as Mark Zuckerberg when it comes to representing the social network.
