A Q&A with Facebook Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg.

Sandberg sat down with USA TODAY to discuss challenges her company and others are confronting, and on the importance of diversity in the tech industry.

“I think we all want our company makeup to reflect the makeup of the people who use our products,” she said.

Sandberg added that Facebook does not just want to release numbers, but move them. “At the broadest level, we are not going to fix the numbers for under-representation in technology or any industry until we fix our education system and until we fix the stereotypes about women and minorities in math and science,” she said.
