The record lists Carolyn McCall as British businesswoman.
Carolyn McCall was born at Bengaluru in 1961. Her recorded nationality is United Kingdom. She was educated at University of Kent and University of London.

She worked as entrepreneur.
Commercial success is easy to measure and hard to interpret; timing and market do much of the work.
Recognition followed: Officer of the Order of the British Empire (2008) and Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (2016).
