Indra Nooyi served as CEO of PepsiCo from 2006 to 2018, transforming it from a snack and soda company into a diversified food and beverage corporation through her "Performance with Purpose" strategy — simultaneously growing revenue, healthifying the product portfolio, and reducing environmental impact. Born in Chennai, India in 1955, Nooyi earned degrees from the University of Madras, IIM Calcutta, and Yale. During her 12-year tenure, PepsiCo's revenue grew from $35 billion to $63.5 billion. Named one of the world's most powerful women for over a decade, she became a model for purpose-driven corporate leadership long before ESG became a business buzzword.
