Obviously, you’re better qualified than Craig Barrett, CEO of Intel, to assess Carly’s tenure at HP - how she structured HP to survive the IT downtown (IBM’s stock fell 60%) and prepare for long-term.
Today, HP is a stronger company because of Carly Fiorinas 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.
