By Nina Trentmann and Costas Paris Nov. 25, 2019 2:35 pm ET Swedish finance executive Carolina Dybeck Happe, who on Monday was named as General Electric Co.’s incoming finance chief, is relatively unknown to U.S. investors.
“What GE investors are looking for is someone who ticks all the boxes, which I think she does,” said Nigel Coe, a managing director at research firm Wolfe Research LLC. Her departure leaves a new gap at Maersk, which has seen two of its most senior leaders depart in less than two weeks, following the resignation of Chief Operating Officer Søren Toft this month to become chief executive of Mediterranean Shipping Co.
“She’s got an offer she couldn’t resist both in terms of salary and other benefits,” a person with knowledge of the matter said. “She is a fiercely independent and disciplined executive who speaks her mind and is going to be missed at Maersk.”
Lol. And I am Napoleon!
Hot 🔥 Sorry, just a reflex
if she were to go out looking for a new job, most would feel threatened by her - she'd have a hard time getting new work. agediscrimination Many VPs pick people 3 levels less qualified. cc business
Yeah, but can she beat by a penny 😎
Aren’t women too emotional to run a company as big as GE? I bet I can run it better than her
Are those supposed to be impressive credentials?
