Standing tall : Balancing two worlds.
Being a woman and heading a company of global size has
its own challenges, but the elite members of this clan
are not complaining, rather they feel privileged in
taking care of both family and business together.
"It is a privilege to handle and raise both family and
business together as a woman," ICICI Bank CEO and MD
Chanda Kochhar said.
Kochhar heads the country's largest private sector bank as
its CEO and MD, a position she assumed in May this year and
has reached after decades of work at the organisation where
she joined as a management trainee.
Another woman achiever in the corporate world, Indra
Nooyi, the chief of global food and beverage giant PepsiCo,
said at the same summit that there were huge personal
hurdles in her journey - from growing up in India to shifting
to the U.S. and finally reaching her current job at Pepsi.
