Preston Hollow neighbor Mandy Ginsberg, the former CEO of Match Group whose dating products include Tinder, Match.com, OkCupid, Hinge and PlentyofFish, wrote a story for Fast Company about why she stepped down as CEO of the company where she worked for the last 14 years. “I knew the biased assumptions my decision could prompt among the troglodytes who still question women leaders,” Ginsberg wrote. “I also know how important it is to change this antiquated notion that there is no place for personal priorities in the C-suite.” She said two personal issues caused her to reprioritize. The Oct. 20 tornado hit her home and displaced her family. In addition, she had tested positive for the  BRCA1 gene and had a preventative double mastectomy, hysterectomy, and oophorectomy (removal of the ovaries). In November, her doctor told her that the FDA had recalled her breast implants. “Maybe talking about breast implants, homes, and health are not standard topics for most CEOs to discuss. Maybe that’s because most CEOs are still men,” she wrote. Read her inspiring story here.
