Good morning, Broadsheet readers! CEO Linda Yaccarino weighs in on Twitter's "rate limit" crisis, a CEO talks about an unflattering viral video, and we share all the details on how to nominate an exec for Fortune's 2023 Most Powerful Women list. Have a wonderful Thursday!
- Call for nominations. Happy summer! That means one thing for us at Fortune: We're getting ready to bring you the 2023 edition of the Fortune Most Powerful Women list this fall.
The annual ranking of the most powerful women in business—CEOs, executives, founders—will be published just a few months from now. As we consider the past year in business—and it's been an eventful one—we want to know: Who are the candidates we should have on our radar?
For an idea of the kinds of execs who generally make this list, check out last year's ranking. The No. 1 spot went to Karen Lynch, who oversees the $322-billion-in-revenue CVS Health. Other listees include Fortune 500 and Global 500 CEOs as well as influential executives at companies that shape society and culture like Alphabet and Netflix.
Whether you've followed the comings and goings of this list closely for the past 26 (!) years or are learning of it for the first time now, we'd love your nominations. This is a global list, and we're especially interested in learning about new business leaders outside the U.S.
To that end, we'll be accepting nominations for this year's ranking from now until July 31. Please email the following information to MPW2023@fortune.com.
- The executive’s title, to whom she reports, her responsibilities, and how many employees she oversees
- What country she’s based in
- The candidate’s bio, including corporate boards or boards of other influential organizations
- Specific accomplishments from the past year
- The company’s annual revenue and profit
- If the candidate is the head of a division, the division’s annual revenue and income
- A description of how the candidate has, in a professional context, used her power to advance the interests of employees, the community, or society at large. (Examples might include: creating a program or business unit that serves a disadvantaged population, measurably reducing the company’s carbon footprint, or creating new hiring pipelines that have resulted in a more diverse workforce.)
Please send the above in no more than 750 words—again, that’s by July 31 to MPW2023@fortune.com.
