The Methodology used to determine which women make the list.

 

 

 

From a preliminary group of over 250 candidates from around the world, we select the 100 most influential women from eight categories or power bases: billionaires, business, celebrity, finance, media, philanthropy and NGOs, politics and technology.

To determine the rank within each category, as well as overall rank on the list of 100, we apply four metrics: money, media presence, spheres of influence and impact.

Money

First we assess the financial resources controlled by each person. For the business, finance, media and tech categories we look at 2013 company revenue.  For celebrities we use income earned from the most recent FORBES Celebrity 100. We tally 2013 GDP for politicians, and net worth from the FORBES 2014 World’s Billionaires list for those with ten-figure bank accounts. Women from nonprofits and NGOs are rated on dollars spent fulfilling an organization’s mission in the last year.

Media

The media component calculates global media mentions from publications, including newspapers, specialized periodicals, newswires and broadcast transcripts from all over the world in the past 12 months. We add to that a total of each woman or her company’s social media presence: Facebook fans, Twitter TWTR +0.03% and Weibo followers and YouTube channel subscribers, all as of May 2014.

Sphere of influence and impact

Next we determine if the candidate is powerful in multiple spheres. Casting a large shadow over one sphere isn’t enough, with Oprah being the ideal example of being a media maven, entrepreneur, businesswoman, billionaire, philanthropist who occasionally dabbles in political king making. Finally we score our candidates on we how actively and successfully they wield their power within their organization or brand, sector and the global stage.
