Forbes’ World’s 100 Most Powerful Women

Last week, Forbes released their list of the 100 most powerful women in the world. The names span nations, industries, corporations and governments. Despite the breadth, their influence is clear and omnipresent.
The top 5 names:
- Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany
- Sheila C. Bair, Chairman of the FDIC
- Indra K. Nooyi, Chairman and CEO of PepsiCo
- Angela Braly, CEO and President of WellPoint
- Cynthia Carroll, CEO of Anglo American
I have to recognize Forbes for this list. For once, we’ve found a list that does not name Oprah or Martha Stewart in their top five. Instead, Forbes reached a bit beyond the obvious to gather the names of the people with plenty of influence who lead the world’s largest organizations.
