????塞莫拉能源公司（Sempra Energy）CEO黛布拉?里德開(kāi)始讀大學(xué)選擇的是醫(yī)學(xué)預(yù)科，但后來(lái)她發(fā)現(xiàn)，嚴(yán)酷的環(huán)境并不適合自己。于是，她選擇了商務(wù)，但是對(duì)于激烈競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的文化依然沒(méi)有好感。2008年，她在《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》（New York Times）上發(fā)表的文章中寫(xiě)道：“任何人都有成功的機(jī)會(huì)?！彼诼殘?chǎng)中不斷晉升，有些男性下屬的年紀(jì)甚至比她大一倍。她經(jīng)常問(wèn)自己：“如果一個(gè)24歲的小姑娘對(duì)我父親發(fā)號(hào)施令，他會(huì)有什么反應(yīng)？”尊重別人是里德職場(chǎng)成功的關(guān)鍵。

Debra L. Reed

Company: Sempra Energy

Fortune 500 rank: 266

????Sempra Energy CEO Debra Reed began her college education as a pre-med student, only to realize the cutthroat environment was not for her. She went into business, keeping her distaste for that kind of competitive culture in mind. "There's room for everyone to be successful," she wrote in the New York Times in 2008. As she climbed the corporate ladder, Reed became the boss of men twice her age. She often asked herself, "How would my father react to having a 24-year-old woman giving him instructions on what to do?" That respect for others was a key component to Reed's rise to the top.
