Lisa Su is absolutely amazing. And I love the context of her success. She is kicking ass because she really is the best leader in hardware. That she is a woman is incidental. She doesn’t play identity politics or milk her femininity. She just wins and wins and wins by delivering great products at a company that was newly left for dead a decade ago.
I want to see more female CEOs like her, because there are too many like Mary Barra who are there to show the company has a strong female at the helm. And people like her end up doing really poorly and give fuel to sexists. People like Lisa Su just show that women can straight up compete and win.

- kolbe 5y agoMary Barra bought a 10% stake in a company for billions of dollars that was a blatant fraud. Also weird how your chart didn’t include Tesla. You must be genuinely comparing her to her competition and not cherry picking the lowest performers.
- tyingq 5y agoHeh. Add it to the chart and it's pretty obvious why I didn't. You can't then read any line other than TSLA. It's not useful if you're trying to ascertain how someone did trying to revive an old US car company versus how other people did.

- chakkepolja 5y agoYeah look at Mozilla CEO milking the company when it exists instead of improving anything. It's not that women make bad leaders. It's just that activist types often make bad leaders, because often their activism is a thin veil over their incompetence.
- metabagel 5y agoYour first point was about the Mozilla CEO not improving anything. Your next point is about activist CEOs being bad. It’s unclear what you mean by activist CEO. Apparently, it’s not a CEO who improves anything?
