Carol Tome

As Tomé puts it, she broke "lots of glass" when she was appointed to run shipping giant UPS in June 2020.
She is both its first "outsider" CEO and its first female chief executive.
She came out of retirement to take the gig; Tomé had retired from a long tenure at Home Depot, where she had been CFO, in 2019.
In her first 100 days as CEO, she focused on preparing the logistics for the 2020 holiday season and the eventual delivery of a Covid vaccine.
UPS has been an essential service during the pandemic, with annual delivery volumes up by double-digit percent as Americans have hunkered at home.
