Game-changing female leadership is a topic that is close to my heart, and I'm thrilled to announce a new annual list at CNBC, Changemakers: Women transforming business.
The list will highlight 40 trailblazing women who have accomplished meaningful achievements in the past year, women from companies and organizations across all sectors of the economy, including philanthropic organizations.
Together, we will highlight how today's successful women leaders are taking novel approaches to old business problems and identifying new business opportunities.
To help us identify a diverse and inclusive list, we have created an advisory board of experienced leaders across the business and philanthropic space.
CNBC Changemakers are the new icons rewriting the rules and shaping the dynamic business landscape.
