We admit that’s not much of a headline upstairs. There’s no way else
going about it though, because Meg Whitman is now the she-boss over at
HP. If we’re not mistaken, for the second time in its storied history a
woman has ascended to the throne vacated CEO post. Alright,
for formality’s sake here’s a formal congrats to Meg Whitman
(clap-clap-clap). She’s wasted no time getting in touch with her
subordinates with a company-wide email that’s gone the rounds. More
after the break.
For clarity’s sake, while Meg Whitman shall reign for an unspecified
time as CEO the chairman of the board is Ray Lane. Together they
circulated a brief email reaffirming The HP Way (god bless you Dave
Packard and Bill Hewlett) and evoking the company’s golden heritage.
The email in full is a wall of text but the message was reassurance
and a little morale boost. When it came to details on upcoming product,
the wording was very ambiguous to the point of revealing nil. In fact,
neither Ray nor Meg slipped a single referrence to future plans, which
is sensible considering it would have been a leak if they did.
