Women CEOs in 2021

Though women in the workplace certainly face a number of obstacles that men do not (discrimination and unequal pay, for starters), the tide is slowly turning. Women, as we all know, are active in every field today. They seem to establish a position in every field for themselves. Furthermore, the most important thing is: There are now 41 female CEOs leading Fortune 500 companies. And, while this is not a huge number, it is a new high that shows that growth is happening – and that evolution is on the door! Here is a list of four Women CEOs that have made a difference. They have set a great example of how a woman can also fulfill corporate roles. Read on to find out who they are!

Sonya Syngal

CEO, Gap.

Sonia Syngal is the Chief Executive Officer of Gap Inc., a $16 billion company with over 130,000 employees operating across all geographies and platforms. She was formerly Executive Vice President of Global Supply Chain and Product Operations at Gap Inc., where she was in charge of overseeing the company’s global market and redefining a best-in-class product-to-market model for its various brands. 

Gap demonstrates how gender equality benefits both society and business as a whole. It is the first and only Fortune 500 company to publicly reveal and confirm its pay equity policies.

“Operate with integrity,” Syngal believes is critical. Look for a place to work where the ideals are similar to yours. Moreover, she believes in — “Demanding equality” and “empowering those around you – tomorrow’s leaders – to speak up.”  

Mary Barra 

CEO, General Motors (GM)

When Mary Barra took over as CEO of General Motors, the auto industry was coming out of a period of turmoil, and GM was on the verge of regaining some hard-won stability. Barra was chosen by the Board of Directors because she was a homegrown talent who had worked her way up through the ranks rather than going outside the business. 

Shortly after Barra took over, GM was hit by the ignition switch crisis, as well as a series of other problems. As GM worked to recover its ground, Barra’s understanding of the company and its distinctive fundamentals prove to be crucial.

Mary Barra is responsible for GM’s transformation into a global industry leader in automotive technology and design, product quality and safety, customer experience, and revenue growth.

Barra’s unique and attractive leadership style stems from her mastery of both the human and technological realms.

Michelle Gass 

CEO of Kohl’s 

Michelle Gass, the CEO of Kohl’s, is in charge of the company’s long-term development, profitability, and strategic direction, overseeing 1,160 shops, a burgeoning e-commerce enterprise, and 100,000 employees around the world.

She has led the company’s emphasis on becoming an active and wellness destination, driven the company’s digital initiatives to become a leading omnichannel retailer. Moreover, she brought in new categories, partners, and brands through her role.

Kohl’s positioning of providing renewed lines while continuing to drive traffic to its brick-and-mortar locations is affirmed by the product diversity.

Jane Fraser 

CEO of Citigroup 

Jane Fraser is the CEO of Citi, the leading global bank, which serves millions of customers, enterprises, and institutions in 160 countries. She is the company’s first female CEO. Her appointment is historic or, in the case, glass-ceiling shattering not only because of what it means but also because of the #MeToo movement. Though fantastic in theory, resulted in women being employed and promoted at a lower rate. Especially in corporate leadership in the United States.

Fraser, a worldwide inspiration for women, loves her role as a working mum and inspires people to acknowledge the many roles that women can play. “My home life is fairly normal, but I’m frequently asked, ‘Can you have it all?’ Are you capable of completing all of the tasks? “Yes, you can,” she said at a social venue, “but you can not do it all at once, and don’t expect all at once.”

Few other lady CEOS who are rock the house every day:

  • Gail Boudreaux – CEO, Anthem
  • Indra Nooyi – CEO of Pepsico 
  • Lisa Su – CEO of Advanced Micro Devices
  • Anne Wojcicki – CEO of 23andMe
  • Beth E. Mooney – CEO of KeyBank
  • Whitney Wolfe Herd – CEO & Founder of Bumble
  • Lauren Hobart – President & CEO of Dick’s Sporting Goods
  • Karen S. Lynch – President & CEO of CVS Health
