Description
In a wide-ranging interview, Carol Bartz covers her very unusual career, from a quite dysfunctional beginning, through working her way through college and various initial jobs to entering the computer industry. Speaking her mind, even when it upset executives, she was able to get increasingly responsible marketing and then executive positions. She was an early woman Chair of a computer company (Sun Microsystems) and then the CEO of Autodesk. She redirected the company, changing it from one that was engineering driven to one that responded to various customer opportunities. After leaving Autodesk, she was the CEO of Yahoo, which was a mixed experience. During her long career, she was active in many large company Boards, particularly enjoying the experience with Cisco and the NY Stock Exchange. She has recently invested in and is the Chair of a Cannabis company.
