That’s a very male oriented statement to make. Somehow it’s sexist to applaud the fact that she’s a role model for women everywhere. It’s really hard to express

That’s a very male oriented statement to make. Somehow it’s sexist to applaud the fact that she’s a role model for women everywhere. It’s really hard to express how incredible for the chief executive at one of the most ambitious and innovative company of our time is a woman. I’ve met her personally and she is an incredibly inspirational person that I hope will inspire more women to become engineers.

She is not the chief executive; she reports to musk who is the CEO.

  In this context, "chief executive" clearly means "C-level executive" which includes the COO.

    No, "the chief executive" refers to the CEO, and it's particularly likely to mislead people in this case since one of her titles is "president", which can be the top position at some companies.

      Say what you want as you squabble about title but Shotwell runs the company.
