Sheryl Sandberg Gives UC Berkeley Commencement Keynote Speech
University of California, Berkeley, 2016
Aperçu
At some point, life will knock you down. Are you emotionally prepared?
Recommendation
As is customary, Sheryl Sandberg peppers her commencement speech to the University of California, Berkeley, class of 2016 with in-jokes and college references. But that’s where her conformity to the cookie-cutter commencement address ends. Sandberg aims to teach the graduands a lesson they didn’t acquire in the halls of Berkeley: how to handle setbacks. In a courageous oration, she shares deeply personal memories of her darkest experience – the death of her husband. getAbstract recommends Sandberg’s emotional yet hopeful depiction of unexpected loss and heartbreak to anyone seeking perspective on bereavement or disappointment or to anyone who has yet to face tough times.
