15 Fortune 500 CEO Women with the Athletic Mindset
Currently, 15 FORTUNE 500 companies are run by women, the same number as last year, although some of the names have changed. At Xerox, Ursula Burns became the first woman CEO to replace a woman, Anne Mulcahy, as a Fortune 500 chief.
On March 8, 2011 International Women’s Day celebrates its 100 year anniversary. As National Directors for the largest gathering of women in the history of the world, sponsored by the (WIN) Women’s Information Network, Randy Friedman and Linda webb (authors of The Athletic Mindset) salute these amazing women for stepping up and standing tall. These are women of the current generation that create the platform for others to follow. Women are stepping up to run more businesses, government and executive matters, thanks to the women that came before them. These women are the pioneers!
