| Carly Fiorina |
Carly Fiorina has stepped down as chairperson and CEO of Hewlett-Packard.
Fiorina said in a statement that she is leaving HP because of a disagreement with the board regarding the execution of HP’s strategy.
CFO Robert P. Wayman was named interim CEO, the company said. A search for a permanent replacement is underway.
Fiorina led a reorganization of the company shortly after joining as CEO in 1999, and helped chart a new strategy to help customers and consumers prosper in the digital age.
As part of that reinvention, Fiorina led the company’s 2002 merger with Compaq Computer, one of the largest high-tech mergers in history.
