Who are the business people, locally or nationally, whom you admire? And what traits do those people exhibit that make you admire them?
Nationally: Indra Nooyi, president and chief financial officer, PepsiCo. We admire her belief that being a woman, being foreign-born, you’ve got to be smarter than anyone else to succeed. What we like is that she accepts it and acts upon it rather than exist in denial. She is a smart risk-taker and has innovative ideas.
