The TechCrunch ?Lean In' Roundtable, Part 3: Linking Up With Real Mentors - And The Right Life Partner
Welcome back for part three of our four-part roundtable discussion of Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg's new best-selling book Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead. In this segment, we first tackled the topic of finding a mentor to help steer your career path. In Lean In, Sandberg argues that many women go about seeking mentors in all the wrong ways, and says that asking outright "Will you be my mentor?" is one of the most common mistakes women make. One of our panelists admitted that earlier in her career she was guilty of asking that very question -- to Sheryl Sandberg herself! Though she says it ended up being a positive learning moment, that was certainly a surprising disclosure for us all to hear.
