Today, women who work at COMANCO got together for a meaningful, encouraging and inspiring discussion about the role women play in business and family and the challenges women face. In September, each COMANCO female employee received a book “Lean In” as a gift. The author, Sheryl Sandberg , is the chief operating officer of Facebook (she is also a former VP at Google) and is ranked on Fortune’s list of the 50 Most Powerful Women in Business and as one of Time’s 100 Most Influential People in the World.
After reading “Lean In”, the women who work at COMANCO shared their personal stories and struggles and how the book and its author’s encouraging message impacted them: don’t hold yourself back in your career, “sit at the table,” support other women in their career growth, seek challenges, take risks and pursue your goals with gusto!
