A view of Carly Fiorina's leadership

Slashdot today has a post of a TechnologyReview.com column by a former HP Labs employee. Michelle Delio made several interesting points about Ms. Fiorina's leadership (which are obviously hearsay).

I enjoyed her views on the importance of innovation at a company. The author's most interesting comment was how in the previous decade, innovation and invention is what drove the industry, and these days, coming out with fancy new colors is considered innovation. Is this a direct comment on iPod? Hmm...

Well, reading about all this mess really enforces my ultimate goal of wanting to be a CEO or Chief Technology Officer at a Fortune 500 company. And no, it's not entirely because of Carly's $45 million+ (total value) severance package. I think at $20 a share, HP is a good buy right now. They've struck bottom, haven't they?
