"GM CEO Mary Barra's Leadership Position Under Threat: For the first time in three years, Mary Barra, the long-serving CEO of General Motors, has slipped out of the top spot in a ranking of the most powerful women in business. After holding the number one position for two consecutive years, Barra has been surpassed by Jane Fraser, the CEO of Citigroup. As Barra marks 12 years at the helm of GM, speculation is growing about the implications of this leadership shake-up for the company's future direction and success. With the automotive industry facing intense competition and disruption, Barra's ability to maintain her position at the forefront of the industry will be closely watched."


Barra, 12 years into her tenure as GM CEO, ranked behind Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser after two consecutive years at No. 1.
