The spaces reserved by women in our collective history are not revered enough. They do not age well. When you hear the name, Winston Churchill, the dominant narrative of today is generous with the adjectives. Bold, daring, tenacious and willful. Churchill easily invokes the indomitable glory of manhood with the mere mention of his name. Very few people talk about his <\/span>appalling racism and quite obvious feats of cruelty.<\/span><\/a> A complete inversion of this process happens when you take the case of Mother Teresa. \u00a0Here is a woman who dedicated her whole life to making life just a little easier for the needy and suffering. There must have been tens and thousands of lives she had enriched while she was alive. But her enduring legacy, at least over the internet is to be re-christened as <\/span>\u201cThe Ghoul of Kolkata\u201d.<\/span> This is not to say that, the accusations being laid against Mother Teresa are false. It is simply that Winston Churchill with his directives for \u201cusing poisoned gas against uncivilized tribes\u201d enjoys far less scathing attacks on his legacy than he probably deserves. This is an enduring problem with the legacies women leave behind in our world. This is why this article features successful women of the 21st century whose legacies should not be ignored. <\/span><\/p>

Rashmi Sinha<\/b><\/h2>

Rashmi Sinha has a Ph.D. in cognitive neuropsychology and another one in Psychology. Add this to a postdoc in Human Computer Interaction (HCI), it is rather easy to see that she belong to academia the same way neurons belong in the human brain. The reason Rashmi Sinha makes this list is not that she is smart, which is obvious. SlideShare founded by her in 2006 was the result of her enjoying practical problems more than academia. The company which was acquired by LinkedIn for 118 million dollars has a user base of 70 million people. SlideShare helped to practically revamp user experience across verticals that span businesses and specializations. It is a brilliant application that has huge constructive value to the world. <\/span><\/p>
