The Ideas Exchange

 

S1:E5: Embraer chief executive Frederico Curado spent 23 years at the Brazilian airplane maker, working across everything from manufacturing to procurement to IT and sales, before he took the helm in 2007. The company has had a big base in China since 2000 and Mr Curado believes emerging markets will play a big role in the future global business landscape, with the number of "emerging multinationals" such as Embraer increasing.

Ines Kolmsee is the only female chief executive of a publicly listed company in Germany. She is the head of specialist chemical company Stahl Metallurgie. Ms. Kolmsee has overseen its first listing on the stock exchange in 2006, its continuing growth around the world and its weathering of the economic downturn.
