Catherine (Cathie) Lesjak
- Company: Hewlett-Packard
- Revenue: -$12.65 billion
In
more than two decades at HP, Lesjak has held a variety of positions at
the computing behemoth, including interim CEO, SVP, and treasurer. She
started her current job as EVP and CFO in 2007. Known in the company for
her level head, she was a lone voice of reason when she vigorously counseled against HP's disastrous 2011 acquisition of Autonomy. The board overruled her and subsequently took a $8.8 billion loss on the deal.
