组图：40位40岁以下的商界精英

7. 克里斯•魏德曼

•  年龄：38

•  职务：办公室主任

•  任职公司：美国财政部

    斯坦福大学（Stanford）法学院毕业的克里斯•魏德曼今年四月份成为新任美国财政部长杰克•卢的得力助手，恰逢其时帮助处理美国财政部（U.S. Treasury Department）愈演愈烈的国税局丑闻。魏德曼之所以获得这个职位是因为他曾经是美国前财长蒂姆•盖特纳的政府事务调停人，深谙应急之道。目前，他正在拼命应对各种耗时更长的挑战：比如全面修改税法、与以共和党为主的国会持续的预算之争，以及与欧洲和中国的国际问题等。魏德曼的任务极其艰巨。

7. Chris Weideman

•  Age:38

•  Title:Chief of Staff

•  Company:U.S. Treasury Department

    This Stanford Law grad was tapped in April to become newly installed Treasury Secretary Jack Lew's right-hand man, just in time to help navigate the department rattling IRS scandal. Weideman earned the job by distinguishing himself as a go-to fixer for Tim Geithner, so he knows how to handle an emergency. Now he's sweating longer-term challenges too: a comprehensive rewrite of the tax code, the ongoing budget battles with congressional Republicans, and international headaches from Europe to China. That's a tall order.
