Cuatro métricas determinan esta lista: el dinero (fortuna personal, ventas de sus compañías, PIB nacional); presencia en los medios; influencia ejercida a través de múltiples esferas, y su éxito en la realización de cambios en su organización, empresa o país. <br /> <br /> Casi un tercio de estas mujeres dirige una nación o juega un papel importante en su formulación de políticas; juntas gobiernan o influyen directamente en más de 3.600 millones de personas. Casi la mitad dirige una compañía global; nueve han construido un negocio de USD 1.000 millones o más. En total controlan alrededor de 1 billón de dólares en ingresos.<br /> <br /> <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Mira el video y la lista a continuación:</span><br /> <br /> <br /> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://forbes_video.edgesuite.net/hd/2097119709001/201606/2097119709001_4926560585001_4926466844001.mp4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> <br /> <br /> <br style="font-size: 13.3333px;" /> <span style="font-weight: bold;
