Tough Choices: A Memoir Author: Carly Fiorina Binding: Hardcover, 336 pages ISBN: 1857883918 Price: RM80.00
Synopsis By accepting the CEO job at
Hewlett-Packard, an iconic company that had lost its way, Carly Fiorina
confirmed her status as the most powerful businesswoman in America. But she also
made herself a target for everyone who disliked her bold leadership style and
resented her rapid rise. For six years, as she led HP through drastic changes
and a controversial merger, Fiorina was the subject of endless analysis, debate,
and speculation. She appeared on the cover of every major magazine and her every
word was scrutinized. Yet in all that time, the public never got to know the
person behind the persona. Tough Choices will finally reveal the real Carly
Fiorina, who writes with brutal honesty about her triumphs and failures, her
deepest fears and most painful confrontations—including her sudden and very
public firing by HP’s board of directors. It’s an amazing life story: Fiorina
was a liberal arts major and law school dropout who didn’t even consider a
business career until her mid-twenties. But soon she was blazing through big
jobs at AT&T and then Lucent Technologies, with a growing reputation as a
creative, hardworking, visionary leader. Her career path would have been
remarkable for anyone, but in an industry dominated by men, it was
unprecedented. Tough Choices shows what it’s really like to lead a major
corporation in a time of great change while trying to stay true to your values.
It’s one woman’s inspiring story, along with her unique perspective on
leadership, technology, globalization, sexism, and many other issues. About the Author |
