Every morning, I always watched CNN channel to be updated about the global news and events. I even checked their website to see some interesting topic. Here what I found, the 10 Most Powerful Women in Business from the CNN.com of Sept. 28, 2009 issue. I read all their profile and job description. They're so amazing, powerful, smart, and rich women. They're all high profile business personalities. I salute them for their intelligence, confidence and strength. So I thought of posting it and here they are:


1. Indra Nooyi

Chairman and CEO
PepsiCo (PEP)
2008 rank: 1
Age: 53

She's back on top for the fourth year, delivering strong profits on $43 billion in sales. Her August deal to buy Pepsi's two biggest bottlers should produce some $300 million in annual cost savings. One weak spot: Consumers panned the rebranding of Gatorade and Tropicana.

2. Irene Rosenfeld, Chairman and CEO
Kraft Foods (KFT)
2008 rank: 2
Age: 56

This pianist and avid Rollerblader has advertised heavily during the recession to keep sales of macaroni and cheese and Kool-Aid flowing. Revenue was up 15% in 2008, and the stock -- a recent addition to the Dow 30 -- outperformed the S&P over the past year.






3. Pat Woertz, Chairman, CEO, and president
Archer Daniels Midland (ADM)
2008 rank: 3
Age: 56

The soybean company's queen has bet big on ethanol, and ADM's stock has risen 15% over the past 12 months. Woertz, who spent three decades in the oil industry before joining ADM in 2006, also sits on the Procter & Gamble board.






4. Angela Braly, President and CEO
Wellpoint (WLP)
2008 rank: 5
Age: 49

A Texan who started out as a waitress, Braly now runs a $61 billion health insurer with 34 million members -- more than any competitor. With a public insurance plan all but off the table, WellPoint's stock is up 71% since March.






5. Andrea Jung, Chairman and CEO
Avon Products (AVP)
2008 rank: 6
Age: 51

She enables millions of women worldwide to work for themselves. Headcount rose 200,000 in the U.S. alone during the first quarter, thanks to the biggest recruiting drive in Avon's history. Jung sits on the GE and Apple boards.






6. Oprah Winfrey, Chairman
Harpo
2008 rank: 8
Age: 55

She's still got the magic touch: When Oprah praised the Kindle, it sold out before Christmas. She's on track to launch OWN, her cable network, to 70 million viewers next year, but ratings for her show are down 31% since 2004.






7. Ellen Kullman, CEO
DuPont (DD)
2008 rank: 15
Age: 53

Twenty-one years after starting out in the X-ray-film division, Kullman took the top job in January. She's reshuffling execs and aiming to trim $1 billion in costs this year.






8. Carol Bartz, CEO
Yahoo (YHOO)
2008 rank: Return
Age: 61

The candid former CEO of Autodesk is betting on display ads, content, and mobile capabilities to give the web pioneer new life. After six months on the job, she forged a deal for Microsoft to power searches on Yahoo.com.
