I just happen to see a headline news yesterday among which an interesting one immediately caught my attention. It reads like this,
"Two Indian steel tycoons -- Ratan Tata of Tata Group and NRI Lakshmi Mittal of global powerhouse Mittal Steel -- have made it to the world's best CEOs list compiled by US stock market weekly Barron's." - Rediff
I really felt the uplift to be proud and happy to see our country men finally making to the list one after another. I know Mittal already made this last year and he is an NRI. He just managed to retains his position now. But "Ratan Tata" just entered this list as anewbie this year.
I guess the world has turned over and watching us more closely than ever before these days. The recent takeovers by these two Steel tycoons really pulled lot of attention worldwide.

Barron's said, adding that these are the 30 leaders who matter and form a group of the world's most indispensable CEOs.
