3. IndraNooyi The PepsiCo PEP -0.74% CEOIndraNooyi, 58, grew up playing cricket in college in India. But when she moved to the U.S., she wanted to keep her love of sport alive. "There were many times that I felt like a fish out of water, times that I really said to myself, 'do I even fit in,'" Nooyi said in an interview. That's how she decided to play baseball. She also reportedly studied the New York Yankees in order to relate to her U.S. peers.
