If you could ask Carol one thing…
Yodel Anecdotal — ... Carol Bartz, our (newish) CEO, has been Yahoo!’s fearless leader for exactly four months. And in that time, I think it’s fair to say she has handily won the hearts and minds of Yahoos the world over. She’s candid, accessible, a quick study, and has an incomparable way with colorful one-liners. She’s made some tough calls, but maintaining status quo wasn’t in her job description. She sees the world through the eyes of a customer (both consumers and partners) and that’s more than half the battle. And you clearly liked ...
