    As a woman in business, Sheryl Sandberg has experienced gender stereotyping and other workplace challenges time and again. She wrote Lean In to highlight the widespread gender imbalance in almost every aspect of life. But what Sheryl didn't expect to notice is that women hold themselves back, often just as much as men do, if not more.
