Powerful, rich, young and brilliant Marissa Mayer CEO of Yahoo is a role model for all the women out there. Thirty eight years old Marissa Mayer is a wife, mother, engineer and CEO of Yahoo, a woman in an industry dominated by men.

We pulled out five interesting facts about Yahoo CEO!

·         Marissa Mayer like numbers: Mayer talks about number as if they are humans. She refers casually to y- axis and x –axes. This smart woman is a nerd at heart and turning 37 turned out to be a pretty interesting year for her, especially considering 36 is divisible by 12!

·         Marissa Mayer is crazy about high fashion: She has Oscar de la Renta cashmere cardigan collection; it is her uniform at work. The sweater is black, ivory navy, hot pink, red and royal blue. She adds new colour every season. The sweater is worth $900.

·         Mayer is a shy lady: She has disciplined herself to deal with shyness. Whenever she arrived at the party, for first few minutes she wants to leave. She would literally look at the watch and say ‘You can’t leave before time x.

·         Mayer is a fan of the "Irish Exit.”: Party at Mayer’s home, a lot of guests noticed that she vanished. Mayer calls this CEO exit, she typically disappears without goodbyes while the party carries on.



·         Mayer has a hard time seeing gender: When she was asked how it feels to be the only women on engineering teams. Mayer would answer honestly: that she hadn't noticed.
