Ginni Rometty was often the only woman in her engineering classes. But, she was determined to excel in a male-dominated field and eventually became the first female CEO of IBM. Her trailblazing leadership revitalized the company and set new standards for women in tech and business. In this episode, Ginni shares her best insights on leadership, resilience, and the importance of being in service of a greater purpose.
