Indeed, to lean in or not to lean in, that will be an ongoing question.
And not an easy one for any aspiring young women to answer, to be sure. To many women, it is about time – high time, as a matter of fact – that they leaned in. For others, it may not be such a good idea.
All women (and men) are not the same.
So, therefore, to each, her (or his) own.
All right, here are media examples of “leaning in”, meaning, metaphorically aggressive participation and total involvement instead of leaning away, laying back and backing off – and, perhaps, even walking away:
1. When Jasmine McElroy enters Room 200 at Howard University’s School of Business on a recent Friday night, she starts to sit in the second row, behind a semicircle of about 10 classmates already deep in conversation. But then Lean In campus coordinator Alysha McFall motions for her to take a seat within, not behind, the group.
You can almost hear Sheryl Sandberg: Sit at the table!
And that’s exactly what McElroy does.
It’s been a year since the publication of “Lean In,” Sandberg’s sort-of manifesto for getting women into leadership and helping them balance work with the rest of their lives. Beyond an endless debate over whether the Facebook executive is good or bad for feminism, the legacy of Sandberg’s movement won’t come down to book sales, a forthcoming movie or less sexist stock photography. It will be defined by Lean In Circles: clusters of women who meet regularly and keep one another focused on their goals, whether they’re trying to win a promotion, get into business school or learn to play guitar.
