Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg argues that men outnumber women in leadership positions because women worry more than men do about external issues--like their reputation and balancing a family life. "When it comes to ambition to lead--to be the leader of whatever you're doing," Sandberg says on "60 Minutes," "men and boys outnumber girls and women."
