Sheila Johnson
It’s no secret that Sheila Johnson’s resume reads like an entrepreneur’s handbook for ladies who are killing it in male dominated fields. As the first African American woman to hold a stake in three professional sports teams, the NBA Wizards, WNBA Mystics and NHL Capitals, Johnson is a business power player whose career is definitely worth admiring. In addition to having her hand in sports, Johnson also serves as the CEO of Salamander Hospitality and helped to co-found BET Networks with her former husband Robert Johnson.
