More women in the workforce?

Hi all,

Though I have prepped you guys a little about what the speech is, you can still watch the following speech by Sheryl Sandberg, Chief Operating Officer of Facebook. She raises some inspiring questions as to why there aren't still many women at the top tier of many important companies and the like.

We can discuss, for example, whether there are an equal number of women and men in your profession. Or is it still a stereotype in your profession that men take over the more important tasks and shoulder more responsibility?

What other kinds of professions or jobs would women be at the top?

Best
Steve
