“Today, HP is a stronger company because of Carly Fiorina’s bold action. Certainly some of this credit goes to current management, who capitalized on the changes Carly made. But it was Carly who shook up the status quo. She engineered the merger. She restructured the combined company. She positioned HP to gain market share, and she deserves credit for standing up to the naysayers and critics to achieve the positive end result.”
- Craig Barrett, CEO of Intel
Thanks for that insight. Many fail to realize that todays success is often built upon anothers bolder actions which they just followup on.
I don’t believe she did a great job for HP. She turned their product into cheap commodities items. Perhaps a short term winner, but long term loser.
Reducing quality and durability for profit and corporate growth for fatter paychecks and bonuses for executives.
But I think she’s doing great on the campaign trail so far.
