Sheryl Sandberg Net Worth - A former Google executive, Sheryl Sandberg is the Chief Operating Officer of social media giant, Facebook. A graduate of Harvard Business School, the 45-year-old mom-of-two was wooed to Facebook by billionaire founder Mark Zuckerberg in 2007.
Aside from being the company's COO, Sheryl Sandberg, whose net worth is valued at $1.04 billion by Forbes, is also a significant shareholder. She supervises sales, marketing, business development, human resources and communications at the social media giant. Under Sandberg's leadership, Facebook has improved its earnings performance and revamped its mobile strategy.
Considered to be one of the most famous and wealthiest women in the world, Sheryl Sandberg has amassed her over a billion dollars net worth through her successful involvement and contribution to business. In 2012, Time magazine named her in the Top 100 of the Most Influential People in the World.
Apart from making Facebook as one of the most profitable social media Web sites, Sandberg is also collaborating with other companies including Starbucks and Walt Disney Company, Get Net Worth noted. Sheryl Sandberg also recently vowed to give away at least half of her net worth to charitable causes by joining The Giving Pledge.
Meanwhile, Sheryl Sandberg, who is one of the few prominent women in tech world with a lucrative net worth value, is facing some tough times after her 47-year-old husband, SurveyMonkey CEO Dave Goldberg, died unexpectedly of head trauma after a fall on a treadmill on May 1. According to Time, Sandberg took to Facebook to express her continued grief over becoming part of a "club that no one wants to join."
"Laura Wellington is right - this is a club that no one wants to join," Sandberg wrote. "Laura, I am sorry for your loss - and my heart goes out to the many women around the world who have experienced this loss too. I learned from your advice and I am sharing it here so others can learn too. My condolences to you - and my gratitude."
And 10 days after the death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg is going back to work this week. Daily Mail reported she will return to her high powered position on Monday. However, she has modified her schedule to spend more time with her two young children. Sandberg also temporarily suspended work travel and will only work when her children are in school.
Now, Sheryl Sandberg faces the prospect of raising two young children as a single mom. She'll also continue her incredibly successful tech career without her husband, whom she often credited with providing the support that was necessary for her to succeed both personally and professionally.
Despite the trying times, Sheryl Sandberg, who has an estimated net worth of either 1.04 billion or 1.1 billion or 1.7 billion as listed by Forbes, The Richest and Celebrity Net Worth respectively, is indeed one of the most wealthiest self-made women in the world after Facebook went public.
