Women on top!



We have Hon Shri.Pratibha Patil heading the democracy, Indra Nooyi, heading pepsi, Sonia Gandhi controlling the political environment of india (so is Jayalalitha, Mamata banerjee, Uma bharti etc etc)

How many of these apart from the frugal example of pepsico's Nooyi have been able to succeed in the corporate world, which till date is a male bastion?

Even Infosys - where a Sudha Murty exist - has not been able to develop a unit to train women for heading corporate affairs, nor Wipro, nor any big indian multinational.

Yes the other industries like finance and healthcare have been more open to women like Swati Piramal, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw and i forget that HSBC's lady.

Why not all corporates? With the country headed by a women is this all we can hope for?

Will not Pratibha patils nomination become another example of tokenism.

To top it all, we have the highest incidences of female infanticide.

Women on top! of what?

Rishi
