Forbes Global Game Changers--2017
When on the subject of successful leaders, it is evident that the how and why of success help derive inspiration. Forbes has come up with its second list of game changers--those who are not happy with the status quo and are transforming their industries by making a difference to the lives of their consumers. The youngest game changers are two contenders--Evan Spiegel, 26-year-old CEO of Snap, and Stripe cofounders John (26) and Patrick Collison (28). The oldest is 75–year-old Christo Wiese, chairman of South Africa-based retail company Steinhoff. These are the innovative trailblazers who are redefining and reimagining the lives of people, and taking the requisite action to bring that vision to life. Forbes embarked on this initiative to acknowledge not just typical corporate achievements such as profits and growth, which are largely limited to employees and shareholders, but also the flair for making a true difference to the larger society.
