1. Indra Nooyi
1.英德拉·努伊
Chairman and CEO of PepsiCo
百事可乐的董事长兼首席执行官
Indra Nooyi joined PepsiCo in 1994 and was named president and CFO in 2001. She has directed the company’s global strategy for more than a decade and led PepsiCo’s restructuring, including the 1997 divestiture of its restaurants into Tricon, now known as Yum! In 2007 she became the fifth CEO in PepsiCo’s 44-year history. Business officials rave at her ability to drive deep and hard while maintaining a sense of heart and fun. According to Business Week, since she started as CFO in 2000, the company’s annual revenues have risen 72%, while net profit more than doubled. She’s back on top for the fourth year, delivering strong profits on $43 billion in sales. Her August deaf to buy Pepsi’s two biggest bottlers should produce some $300 million in annual cost savings. One weak spot: Consumers panned the rebranding of Gatorade and Tropicana.
