Leadership and Religion

I am not sure if there is any connection with these two things but I just realized some oddly interesting facts - The largest beverage maker is run by a man of Muslim faith - Muhtar Kent with a Turkish heritage is COKE CEO while the second largest company Pepsi is run by a Hindu -Indra Nooyi who is of Indian heritage. Both run soda companies that make products which appeal to global tastes but both companies are American. Changes like that are happening in many big American corporations with the appointment of another Indian born chief to head the operations of Citigroup worldwide. Mastercard too happens to be run by a Sikh of Indian origin. Then there is talk of the venerable institution called Berkshire Hathaway which might find a new leader who happens to be a Jain from India. One of his cousins it appears already runs a large German bank. I think what this trend underlines is that hard work and a bunch of lucky accidents do pay off big regardless of religion, faith, alignments, age and gender.
