No one expected Jane Boulware, the scrappy girl from the corn fields of Iowa, who paid for college selling used carpet and her mom's prayers, to become a leader of billion-dollar businesses and a top Microsoft executive.
Unwilling to let circumstances, fear, or others define her, Jane was penniless and married at 21, earned an MBA at 24, first saw the ocean at 25, commuted to South America each week at 31, brought two sons into the world by 35, was a millionaire at 37, and one of the top women at Microsoft at 40. Along the way to the corner office, Jane was hit on, spit on, shot at, yelled at, a zero, and a hero. She's been called a bulldog, a b****, an idiot, and brilliant, all in the same week.
