"Fortune has just released its annual Most Powerful Women in Business list, and as always, it&amp;#x27;s an inspiring mix of female leaders kicking some serious a**. In light of the ongoing conversations around women (or lack thereof) in STEM roles, we&amp;#x27;re especially excited to see a number of female leaders in technology, including the much lauded and loved Sheryl Sandberg. Sandberg, the chief operating officer of Facebook and author of Lean In (a book that has made her a global celebrity) came in at number five, and was also the subject of a cover story where the magazine talks about how Sandberg found the time to do a book&amp;amp;mdash;and book tour&amp;amp;mdash;along with all her other responsibilities. The piece also states that &amp;quot;partially as a result of the book&amp;quot; Facebook has a record-breaking number of female interns this year, which bodes well for the future of women in tech...and future Fortune lists. Also in the top 50? There&amp;#x27;s Ginni Rometty, CEO of IBM, who came in at number one for the second year in a row (she&amp;#x27;s currently trying to commercialize Watson, the Jeopardy playing supercomputer&amp;amp;mdash;how cool is that?). Yahoo&amp;#x27;s new CEO, Marissa Mayer (our girl crush of the moment and a former Glamour Women of the Year honoree), took the eight spot after a much-talked-about year in which she made big changes at the company, including the $1.1 billion purchase of Tumblr. And Ursula Burns, CEO of Xerox, slid in at number 13 for transforming the printer company into a hub for customer care and outsourcing. You can see the entire list on Fortune.com. Oh, and she might not be a tech leader, but we love that Scandal and Grey&amp;#x27;s creator and executive producer, Shonda Rhimes, joined the list at number 50!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
