Arundhati Bhattacharya,
Chairperson and CEO, Salesforce Indiaage: 64
After spending a
lifetime in a public
sector bank, the
former SBI chairman
has reinvented
herself as the India
head of a Silicon
Valley darling. While
she had ratcheted
up an impressive list
of private sector

retiring in 2018,

in April this year to
Salesforce—which
specialises in CRM
software—has
surprised everyone.
