Sheryl Sandberg may pursue a career in politics after she leaves Facebook, with some beltway observers highlighting her high profile, a history of business success, a popular book, and a compelling personal story.

The veteran Facebook executive said on Wednesday she is stepping down. "I'm not entirely sure what the future will bring - I have learned no-one ever is," she wrote. "But I know it will include focusing more on my foundation and philanthropic work, which is more important to me than ever given how critical this moment is for women."

That may be a reference to the Supreme Court's imminent decision to end women's abortion rights, the hottest political issue of the moment.(snip)

Sandberg was considered a candidate for Treasury Secretary had Hillary Clinton's bid for the 2016 presidency succeeded, according to Politico, which also reported that Sandberg had advised Hillary Clinton's campaign on women's issues.

During Michael Bloomberg's 2016 presidential run, she was a top choice to be his Vice President, a person who worked on his campaigns said.

Or, she could have a pretty nice retirement on a $1.6 billion net worth. That’s what I would do.

She was the worst kind of Silicon Valley executive.
She spent all her time promoting herself and zero time doing her job.
Sounds like Hillary so yes politics is a natural next step.
In most SV companies, she would have been fired after 6 months.

That village Idiot, Renee James who was Co-CEO at Intel got her a** handed to her for doing the same thing.
Too bad it took them a couple more years to get rid of the King of Idiots, BK.

Meh. Her tenure at fb has been unimpressive - specifically how they handled politics and “truth.” Fb is headed for tough time ahead - meta strategy unclear, user decline, stock performance not great over 5 years. But she wrote a book, so there’s that.
