Carly Fiorina Faced 'Tough Choices'

The "HP Way" and the change agent.

Carly Fiorina talks about leadership, management, and culture ans her book, 'Tough Choices:' 





"When culture becomes convention, then something has to change."

"...sometimes the toughest choices you have to make are to fire somebody, not because they're not getting results, but because their values and judgment are inconsistent with what you say you stand for. The toughest personnel choices I have ever had to make in my career are where I have had to deal with abusive or dishonest people and, let's be honest with each other, abusive, dishonest people get results in business."

"I was taught long ago that values are what guide your behavior when no one's looking and you think no one will find out."
