PepsiCo Presentation


The latest corporate presentation I attended here at Yale was for Pepsi. We were fortune to have our most illustrious alum give the presentation. Indra Nooyi is the president and chief executive officer of PepsiCo, which is the world's fourth-largest food and beverage company. On August 14, 2006 she was named the next to succeed Steve Reinemund as chief executive officer of the company. Reinemund, 58, retired on October 1, 2006. And speaking of Steve Reinemund, he is now the Chairman of the Board at Pepsi (Indra's boss, so to speak) and will be speaking at the Yale School of Management Christian Business Conference in February. Check out the link below, which details Indra's #1 most powerful businesswoman ranking according to Fortune Magazine (she is ranked #4 in Forbes). She was extremely impressive at the presentation and my respect for her increased greatly.
