Paul Jordan sent the following.... WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon has been named to Multichannel News' "40 under 40" list of executives making an impact under 40 years old.   The 11th annual "40 under 40" list honrs a wide range of executives from various telecommunicatons backgrounds that have made an impact within their industry.   This year's list highlights McMahon's accomplishments as Chief Brand Officer but also throughout her career at WWE and the success she had brought to various departments. Additionally, the "40 under 40" list points out McMahon's work outside of WWE, such as establishing Connor's Cure for pediatric cancer research and being one of nine U.S. leaders chosen for the Eisenhower Fellowship led by General Colin Powell.  Earlier this year, McMahon was honored by Multichannel News as one of cable and telecommunications' Wonder Women. The Wonder Women Award honors female executives at the forefront of cable television and communications.  When asked by Multichannel News what she liked best about her job, McMahon said: “The opportunity to engage with the families who watch our programming and see the smiles on their faces as we create memories that will last a lifetime.”  To see the full 40 under 40 list, click here.
