GIRL SCOUT COOKIE CRUMBLES
The Girl Scouts of the USA was founded in 1912. Its former CEO Frances Hesselbein was born a mere three years later. She stewarded the cookie-proffering youth organisation for thirteen years, receiving 22 honorary doctorate degrees and the Presidential Medal of Freedom for her efforts. In her centennial year, she was still ranking on Fortune leadership lists, albeit that came with the drawback of sharing a list with Elon Musk. She was 107 yet incredibly was not the longest-lived name in Girl Scouts leadership – Dorothy C. Stratton, who served as its national executive director during the 50s, lived about five months longer. One Century Is Enough, Madam! earns another badge.
