Indra Nooyi, a mother first, then a CEO
September 27, 2007
Indra Nooyi's job as CEO of global beverage giant Pepsico is second only to her role as mother, while her husband figures a poor third on her priority list.
"I'm a mother first, then a CEO, then a wife," said Nooyi, named fifth most powerful women in the world by Forbes,
during a discussion on 'Women and Global Leadership' organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry and the Yale Club in New York.
For a woman who helped Pepsico look beyond aerated drinks business and sell fast foods over a decade back, she finds it difficult at times essaying what she calls her most important role, that of a mother.
