fight the large stakeholders ... as in resist the selling?
she would wanna do that because she might think she can still make Yahoo recover, and if Yahoo is sold, it'll give the impression that she failed as a CEO?
Just trying to understand the whole thing.
- dharmon 11y agoYes, resist in selling. And yes, she doesn't want her legacy to be Yahoo's value nosediving under her watch (whether or not it was her fault). I'm not saying she's wrong in resisting, only that resisting is a "neg" when it comes to getting future CEO jobs. The tanking value can be explained away ("the momentum was insurmountable", etc.), but resisting stakeholders too strongly cannot.
