The top business women of 2012

2012 has been a year of change and evolution for women in the business industry. For the first time ever, there are presently 20 CEOs that are women in the 500 largest US companies. They also represent 16% of the members of greatest company boards. The top one on the list of those powerful women is Sheryl Sandberg, which I have previously spoken of. "We now have more women at the top in tech than in most other industries" states Rosabeth Moss Kanter, a Harvard Business School professor. That is due to the fact that technology industries require innovation and entrepreneurship. If a woman can prove herself then she is esteemed. All those advancements show that a woman succeeding is not an exception but part of a whole group and trend.
