Summary
[edit]DescriptionCarly Fiorina at Southern Republican Leadership Conference, Oklahoma City, OK May 2015 by Michael Vadon 05.jpg |
English: Carly Fiorina (born Cara Carleton Sneed; September 6, 1954) is a former business executive who is actively seeking the Republican Party's nomination for President of the United States. Starting in 1980, Fiorina rose through the ranks to become an executive at AT&T and its equipment and technology spinoff, Lucent. As chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard (HP) from 1999 to 2005, she was the first woman to lead one of the top twenty U.S. companies.
In 2002, Fiorina pushed through the biggest high-tech merger in history with rival computer company Compaq, which made HP the world's largest personal computer manufacturer. HP gained market share following the merger and subsequently laid off 30,000 of its American workers. Fiorina famously said to Congress in 2004: "There is no job that is America's God-given right anymore. We have to compete for jobs as a nation." By the end of 2005, the merged company had more employees worldwide than they had separately before the merger. On February 9, 2005, in the wake of the controversial Compaq merger, and following a 65% drop in the HP stock price, Fiorina was forced to resign as chief executive officer and chairman of Hewlett-Packard in what she described as being "fired in a boardroom brawl". Since then, she has served on the boards of a number of other organizations. Assessments of Fiorina's business career have varied. During her time at Lucent and Hewlett-Packard she was named by Fortune Magazine the most powerful woman in business. However, two days before her ousting from HP, Fortune described her merger plan as "failing" and the prognosis as "doubtful". She has been described as one of the worst tech CEOs of all time, though others have defended her leadership decisions and business reputation. Fiorina served as an advisor to Republican John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign. She won a three-way race for the Republican nomination for the United States Senate from California in 2010, but lost the general election to incumbent Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer. On May 4, 2015, Fiorina announced on Good Morning America that she is running for President of the United States in 2016. Welcome to the Southern Republican Leadership Conference May 21-23 promises to be a rendezvous with destiny in Oklahoma City. The unofficial start of the 2016 Republican Presidential campaign begins here, in the new energy capital of America! The 2016 election will be one of the most important in our lifetime.
