THE 25 MOST POWERFUL WOMEN IN BANKING

U.S. Banker ranks, for the first time, women execs who "personify power, business savvy and creative intelligence." The magazine interviewed nearly 4,700 women before trimming the list to the final picks. Scroll down the page for in-depth profiles, including interviews and career histories, for the top five honorees. Or click on The 25 Most Powerful Women in Banking for a quick listing of names, job titles and employers.

The site includes another list of "25 Women to Watch," which could provide us with leads on folks to follow in the years to come.

CAREERJOURNAL.COM SUCCESS STORIES

You know you've really made it when the Wall Street Journal lists you as a Success Story. CareerJournal.com, which is the Journal's Executive Career Site, has collected articles profiling an entrepreneur who developed a water filter for RVs, a Nebraska physics professor with an interest in football, a professional gambler and many more. These stories will entertain you, even if they don't always point to major gift prospects. For example, one story profiles three former Microsoft workers who left behind big salaries to become a doula, a pastor and an "experiential educator."

OTCBBTRADER EXECUTIVE NEWS

This site is the resource to use when you're researching penny stocks, those pesky but important stocks that aren't listed on any of the big boards. For the purposes of People this month, we'll look only at news of the executives who work in the microcap world. Otherwise, if you're interested, you could spend hours exploring all that this site has to offer.

The Web site lists updated news of Executive Hires, Executive Leaves and any changes to a Board of Directors. Look for those headers under Executive News in the left margin. Click on each story header to be taken to the full article from Business Wire and other news resources.
