There’s hype, there’s controversy. Personally, I’m ready to be part of Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In movement! Are you interested as well? Here are some things you can do to participate today:

• Pre-order a copy of “Lean In” from Amazon or your favorite bookseller.
• Clear your calendar for March 11, when your book will arrive. You know you will want to read it right away.
• Join the movement. Enter your email address at http://www.leanin.org/.
• Show your friends that you are leaning in by liking the Lean In Facebook page.
  
• Contribute to the professional conversation by joining the Lean In LinkedIn group.
• Tweet with the hashtag #leaningin.
• Share your personal story of a time you chose between fear and leaning in. Post it on the Lean In site.

My next steps, once I read the book:

• Write about the intersection (or perhaps collision?!) of parenting and leaning-in.
• Start or join a lean-in circle.

What ideas do you have for contributing to this movement? I’d like to hear from you!
