HP board in Carly's corner
Despite the challenges Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina faces, the board of directors stands strongly behind her, according to one of its members."In the early summer of 1999, when we were interviewing Carly (for the CEO post), we discussed it would take a minimum of three years to turn things around and there would be lots of ups and downs," said George Keyworth II, an HP director and also chairman of public policy research institute The Progress & Freedom Foundation.
