The list also includes Stephen Schwarzman of Blackstone, Brian Sikes of Cargill, Jane Fraser of Citi, Jim Anderson of Coherent, Larry Culp of GE Aerospace, David Solomon of Goldman Sachs, Jacob Thaysen of Illumina, Michael Miebach of Mastercard, Sanjay Mehrotra of Micron and Cristiano Amon of Qualcomm.
