Ruth Porat, an American business magnate, is the Chief Financial Officer of Google and its parent company Alphabet Inc. Featuring in the list of world’s most powerful women in technology and finance, she has been making waves in the industry through her stern leadership and firm actions. Whether be it with showing her support against sexual harassment at the workplace, or cutting down funding for impractical divisions at Google, she is a strict disciplinarian, who has a solution ready for a crisis, even before it happens. She worked at Morgan Stanley before she moved to Google. Her friends and colleagues know her as an individual who was taking work calls in the hospital when she was about to deliver her first child, while clients feel that she anticipates their problems and is available on call at virtually all hours of the day. Having survived her struggle with breast cancer twice, Ruth finds a reason to continue working with renewed zest everyday of her life.
