A New York Times Bestseller An intimate and powerful memoir by the trailblazing former CEO of PepsiCoFor a dozen years as one of the world’s most admired CEOs, Indra Nooyi redefined what it means to be an exceptional leader. The first woman of color and immigrant to run a Fortune 50 company - and one of the foremost strategic thinkers of our time - she transformed PepsiCo with a unique vision, a vigorous pursuit of excellence, and a deep sense of purpose. Now, in a rich memoir brimming with grace, grit, and good humor, My Life in Full offers a firsthand view of Nooyi’s legendary career and the sacrifices it so often demanded. Nooyi takes us through the events that shaped her, from her childhood and early education in 1960s India, to the Yale School of Management, to her rise as a corporate consultant and strategist who soon ascended into the most senior executive ranks. The book offers an inside look at PepsiCo, and Nooyi’s thinking as she steered the iconic American company toward healthier products and reinvented its environmental profile, despite resistance at every turn. For the first time and in raw detail, Nooyi also lays bare the difficulties that came with managing her demanding job with a growing family, and what she learned along the way. She makes a clear, actionable, urgent call for business and government to prioritize the care ecosystem, paid leave and work flexibility, and a convincing argument for how improving company and community support for young family builders will unleash the economy’s full potential. Generous, authoritative, and grounded in lived experience, My Life in Full is the story of an extraordinary leader’s life, a moving tribute to the relationships that created it, and a blueprint for 21st century prosperity. Review An Amazon Best Book of October 2021: Reading Indra Nooyi’s My Life in Full, you can’t help but like her. Sure, she’s tough and driven enough to have made it to the top of PepsiCo-the first woman of color and immigrant to run a Fortune 50 company-but she is family-oriented and cares about people as more than just potential customers. Nooyi writes that a leader’s fundamental goal should be to shape the decades ahead, not just react to the present, and the future she envisions includes a world where people have room to both make a living and to live their lives. She had a strong hand in shaping her company’s future for the better, introducing a mission of Performance with Purpose-which faced many hurdles-that made the company healthier and more environmentally friendly. And yet her greatest pride is her family. With typical honestly, Nooyi writes of the difficult choices and trade-offs she had to make in managing her corporate trajectory while raising two daughters-she lays out what she learned and what she might have done differently. I want to go on about this book and the lessons I learned, but you will have to read it for yourself. You really will like Indra Nooyi. You will also respect her and learn from her. -Chris Schluep, Amazon Editor Review Praise for My Life in Full:“With candor and good humor, Nooyi has written a wonderful book that brings her story to life, from her early years in India, surrounded by love and high expectations, to her determined efforts to succeed in the corporate world, all the while questioning the tradeoffs she had to make. She reveals just how our society continues to sacrifice talent instead of changing how we organize work to maximize everyone’s potential to live full and productive lives. A must-read for working women and the men who work with us, love us, and support us.” -Hillary Rodham Clinton “Gritty, joyous, and visionary, Nooyi tells the story of an everyday person living an extraordinary life, leading beautifully and confidently from the front. A must-read for all.” -Ursula M. Burns, former chair and CEO of Xerox, author of Where You Are Is Not Who You Are “‘CEO’ and ‘care’ do n
