Here’s how Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg went from a global icon to just another powerful tech executive over the last decade.
Sheryl Sandberg started the decade as chief operating officer of Facebook and a rising female business icon.
In previous years, this type of special assignment would've been out of the ordinary for Sandberg, theexecutive charged with growing the company's ad business and handling its communications.
Perhaps most importantly, Sandberg was charged with growing Facebook's revenue and advertising businesses in preparation for an inevitable IPO. The next month, Sandberg was rewarded for her work with a position on the Facebook board of directors. She was the first woman to join the board. But Sandberg's life took a tragic turn in May 2015. Sandberg's husband, Dave Goldberg, suffered a coronary arrhythmia and died while the two were vacationing in Punta Mita, Mexico.
