烏蘇拉?伯恩斯 ????公司：施樂公司 ????《財富》500強排名：131 ????從暑期實習生到CEO,，在施樂公司工作29年之后，伯恩斯于2009年成為《財富》500強（Fortune 500）公司首位黑人女性CEO,。伯恩斯是一名接受過培訓的機械工程師,，她向其他同事證明，自己具有很強的學習能力,，是一個坦率直言的人,。她從基層崛起——曾負責產(chǎn)品開發(fā)、商業(yè)計劃,，還擔任過一系列管理職位,，這些讓她在2000年施樂重組時進入公司核心。她與前任安妮?馬爾卡希也建立了密切的工作關(guān)系,，正是這種關(guān)系促成了近期商業(yè)歷史上最平穩(wěn)的,、最周密的權(quán)力交接。馬爾卡希欽點伯恩斯作為她的接班人,，為了順利完成一位施樂老兵向另一位施樂老兵的權(quán)力交接,，兩人采取了一種權(quán)利共享的安排。在去年的《財富》雜志最具影響力商界女性峰會（Most Powerful Woman Summit）上,，伯恩斯表示：“我們有許多相同之處,，這讓我能輕松完成轉(zhuǎn)變。我們在這家公司度過了一生,。我們喜歡這里,，我熱愛這里的每一個人?！?/p> |
Ursula Burns ????Company: Xerox ????Fortune 500 rank: 131 ????From summer intern to CEO, Burns became the first black woman CEO of a Fortune 500 company in 2009, after 29 years at Xerox. A mechanical engineer by training, Burns, who proved herself a quick study and an outspoken colleague, blew through the ranks—taking on product development, business planning and a series of managerial roles that in 2000 put her at the center of Xerox's restructuring efforts. She also developed a close working relationship with her predecessor Anne Mulcahy, a relationship that led to what has been called one of the smoothest, most thoughtful successions in recent business history. Mulcahy hand-picked Burns and the two worked out a power-sharing arrangement that made for a gradual torch-passing, from one Xerox lifer 'to another. "We had a commonality that made my transition easy," Burns said at Fortune's Most Powerful Woman Summit last year. "We spent lives at this company. We loved it and loved the people in it." |
