1. If you were a shareholder, what would you think about Indra Nooyi’s vision for PepsiCo? Does it make you want to invest more or less in the company?

2. Would it be possible for a leader to attempt to do what Nooyi is trying to do at Pepsi and in the industry if she didn’t have the referent power she seemingly possesses?

3. Is this approach sustainable for PepsiCo if Nooyi decides to leave the organization (she has been rumored to be named as a cabinet member in Washington, DC)? What types of influence does she need to wield in order for her to be successful in this endeavor?
