Well a FB link that don't demand a FB login - there is hope.
Anyhow given her job of "Sandberg oversees Facebook’s business operations including sales, marketing, business development, legal, human resources, public policy and communications. " and the good words zucker has said about her, then why is it she is only now being made a director? Makes you wonder what the other directors had to do for there roles and if there was anything left for them to do with her onboard already!
- qq66 14y agoIt's quite common for corporate boards to be comprised of outsiders, with the CEO as the only board member who is also an employee. I wouldn't call it unusual that Sandberg is not currently on the board, nor is it unusual that she is now joining the board. For example, Oracle has four employees on the board, Microsoft has only one (Ballmer), and Apple has only one (Cook).
- confluence 14y agoIt's a PR release. Don't get too excited. It's meant to be spread around. The board is founder controlled. Sheryl Sandberg is heavily invested with the founder. Adding her to the board further cements his position and gets PR points for having a woman on the board (which many boards don't have). I have no opinion as to whether or not this is a good or bad thing - but that's what I see from my more or less limited view point.
