Revenue alone doesn’t define it, nor does seniority. Who is more powerful: the CEO who oversees a $20 billion enterprise? Or the AI genius who leaves that bureaucratic behemoth to found a nimble, paradigm-shifting startup? The farsighted venture capitalist who inks a term sheet to fund said startup? Or the feared short-seller who bets against the aging tech giant and forces out the CEO? The answer varies from day to day. Power is nuanced. It’s hard-won and easily lost. It’s never static.</p><p> </p><p>What you’ll find on this list: leaders from 40 industries, ranging in age from their 30s to their 90s. You’ll come across very recognizable founders, chief executives of great businesses, disrupters, and innovators. What you won’t find: fossilized billionaires who are no longer active in business; nor will you find politicians, regulators, or seconds-in-command. In the end, the people who earned places on the Most Powerful People list share a vital trait: Their words, deeds, and wealth shape what others around them think and do.

Revenue alone doesn’t define it, nor does seniority. Who is more powerful: the CEO who oversees a $20 billion enterprise? Or the AI genius who leaves that bureaucratic behemoth to found a nimble, paradigm-shifting startup? The farsighted venture capitalist who inks a term sheet to fund said startup? Or the feared short-seller who bets against the aging tech giant and forces out the CEO? The answer varies from day to day. Power is nuanced. It’s hard-won and easily lost. It’s never static.</p><p> </p><p>What you’ll find on this list: leaders from 40 industries, ranging in age from their 30s to their 90s. You’ll come across very recognizable founders, chief executives of great businesses, disrupters, and innovators. What you won’t find: fossilized billionaires who are no longer active in business; nor will you find politicians, regulators, or seconds-in-command. In the end, the people who earned places on the Most Powerful People list share a vital trait: Their words, deeds, and wealth shape what others around them think and do. </p><div class="sc-90b709fa-5

She joined the company as an entry-level claims representative in 1988, later taking on leadership roles including chief human resources officer, president of claims, and president of customer operations. Progressive’s revenue in 2023 grew by 25% compared with the previous year, a trajectory that has continued into 2024. The company recently announced plans to hire more than 10,000 people across the country. In August, Progressive launched a new purpose platform, Move Forward and Live Fully, focused on various community initiatives, including donations of refurbished vehicles to veterans, grants to small-business owners, and the creation of affordable homes. This year, Griffith led a group of influential businesswomen investing personal funds in a bid to bring a National Women’s Soccer League team to the city of Cleveland.\u003c/p\u003e","data":"[]","image":"https://fortune.com/img-assets/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/100_MPP_2025-TRICIA-GRIFFITH.jpg","order":100,"rank":100,"slug":"/ranking/most-powerful-people/2024/tricia-griffith/","title":"Tricia Griffith","url":"https://fortune.com/ranking/most-powerful-people/2024/tricia-griffith/"}],"title":""}],"metaDescription":"The 100 Most Powerful People in Business share a vital trait: Their words, deeds, and wealth shape what others around them think and do.","metaTitle":"Fortune 100 Most Powerful People in Business of 2024","methodology":null,"modifiedGmt":"2024-11-12 05:05:13","pageType":"franchise-list","platformCD":"own","premiumCategory":{"name":"legacy","premiumCategoryId":0},"primarySection":{"link":"","name":"","primarySectionId":0,"uri":""},"sectionNames":[],"sections":[],"showOrder":true,"showTout":0,"slug":"most-powerful-people","socialDescription":"The 100 Most Powerful People in Business share a vital trait: Their words, deeds, and wealth shape what others around them think and do.","socialTitle":"100 Most Powerful People in Business","stnVideoId":"bTW6Yz0QZF-4009719-14497","tagNames":[],"tags":[],"thumbnailUrl":"https://fortune.com/img-assets/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Fortune-Logo-Most-Powerful-People.png","title":"100 Most Powerful People in Business","topicNames":["most-powerful-people"],"topics":[],"toutImageAltDesktop":"","toutImageAltMobile":"","toutImageDesktop":"","toutImageMobile":"","toutLink":"","uri":"/ranking/most-powerful-people/2024","url":"/ranking/most-powerful-people/2024","vodVideoId":"","year":"2024","years":["2024"],"prefixedDatabaseId":"fl_426","rankingUri":"/ranking/most-powerful-people/"},"franchiseSearch":{"adTags":[],"authorNames":[],"authors":[],"canonicalUrl":"https://fortune.com/ranking/most-powerful-people/search/","channel":"100mostpowerfulpeopleinbusiness","databaseId":426,"dateGmt":"1731405913","description":"\u003cp\u003eHow do you measure power, exactly?
