NEW Yahoo CEO : Carol Bartz

This might be late I would just like to inform you that Yahoo has it’s new CEO and her name is Carol Bartz , Carol Bartz ran software company Autodesk for 14 years, most recently serving as executive chairwoman. San Rafael, Calif.-based Autodesk, with just over 7,000 employees worldwide so we can really expect something from her. Based on her track record she is a woman who can again put yahoo on it’s old glory. Although it will be a top job for her to counter what is Google doing in the world of Search Engine.

Bartz is taking over an embattled Yahoo. In mid-November, co-founder Jerry Yang stepped down after failed attempts to improve the company’s performance.

Carol Bartz was chairman, president and CEO of Autodesk from 1992 to 2006. Under her tenure, the company’s revenue grew from $285 million to more than $1.5 billion. Previously, she was an executive at Sun Microsystems In

Bartz sits on the board of Intel Corp., Cisco Systems , NetApp  and the Foundation for the National Medals of Science and Technology. President George Bush appointed her to his Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
