" podcast, where he interviews world-class humans by asking them just five questions in under 10 minutes.Whitman says that three keys for being a good CEO of any size business are communication, hiring the right people, and focusing on the company's financial architecture.
From 1998 to 2008, Whitman was the CEO of eBay growing the company from 30 employees and $4 million in revenue to more than 15,000 employees and $8 million in revenue. Then in 2009, she ran for governor of California, later dropping out in 2010. A year later, Whitman went back into the corporate world as the CEO of HP before stepping down in 2017. Then in 2018, she became the CEO of Quibi, a short-form original mobile-only platform.
In our conversation, Whitman spoke about the difference between leading a Fortune 500 company and a startup, how to decide what risks are worth taking, what she learned from politics, how to manage during a crisis, and her best career advice.You've been the CEO of two Fortune 500 companies and are now the CEO of a startup.
The other thing is politics is hard. Anyone who looks at people who run for office and says, well, that looks easy or gee, well, if I were running, I would say this, or I do something different. Until you actually do it, it's very easy to be a commentator on the sidelines. And until your name is on the ballot, I don't think anyone really knows what this is about.
