[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]sandberg's advice is not very applicable to non elite school women. especially non elite school non-jewish women.

without H - > HBS -> McKinsey -> Larry Summer's protege she doesn't get on the right path to give her the opportunities she needs for the flexibility/lifestyle she has.

Sandberg's book has value for young women in HS or in college who are on those types of traintracks.

It is wholly inappropriate for your typical state school grad to read.

What is with the references to her religion? This is the second post. Thankfully the first was deleted.[/quote]

jewish people have a very strong network through their ethnicity/religion that others might not be able to tap. you are very naive if you don't know about this.

note, this isn't just about jewish people. it would be about any ethnicity that has a tight knit networking relationship.

amy chua talks about how this is one aspect of successful minorities. [/quote]

go ahead and roll your eyes at me. this board is about unvarnished truths so that we can all help each other out. but if you want to day dream about being able to follow sandberg's path, more power to you.[/quote]

I'll keep day dreaming before becoming a racist like you.[/quote]

NP.  It really was not racist.  Jewish religious and cultural institutions invest a ton in networking.  I'm not saying it's some Elders of Zion cabal, but there is a middle way between conspiracy theories and your feigned obliviousness.[/quote]

When the statement is Jewish people have paths to success other people don't, it's pretty ignorant and close to Elders of Zion.

The fact is Jews are not some tight knit, recent, immigrant group-- in fact the differences among Jews are often bigger than the differences between Jews and non-Jews (did you hear the one about Trump's ambassador to Israel saying liberal Jews are worse than Nazi collaborators?)

It may be that there is some networking among a particular Jewish cohort or congregation, but the idea that being Jewish gives you a leg up over other people in corporate America seems a little strange, if not racist.

Back on topic, I really dislike how Sheryl Sandberg refused to engage at all with the hotel workers at Harvard.  [/quote]

oh look, today's front page on Bloomberg.

yeah i'm sure that the Kushners being jewish had NOTHING to do with their access to theses capital and partnerships.

nothing to see here. move along. [/quote]
