We had covered in the past about HP's travails and also covered two major pieces that WSJ and Businessweek had on Carly and HP. Despite her being defiant, it was clear all along that she was losing ground and her refusal to share power and responsibility saying strategy and execution can't be delinked and things were not happening in the marketplace for HP as well.There had been calls to split the company and spin off the printer division separately. HP lost leadership or just managed to retain what it had in several of its product offerings. Om Malik asks,"why isn’t the board being asked to leave" when they had by and large supported her decisions in the past.While many have covered carly's exit, I found this coverage very balanced.
