惠普董事長:HP只是我的兼職
????雖然雷?萊茵現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)是惠普公司(Hewlett-Packard)的執(zhí)行董事長了,,但對(duì)他而言,,這只不過是份兼職工作。 ????萊茵在9月23日早間接受美國CNBC電視臺(tái)采訪時(shí)稱,,他的“全職工作”仍將是擔(dān)任凱鵬華盈投資公司(Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers)的執(zhí)行合伙人,。他補(bǔ)充說,風(fēng)險(xiǎn)投資仍然是他最感興趣的領(lǐng)域,,但如果惠普新任CEO梅格?惠特曼有需要,,可以隨時(shí)向他尋求幫助或建議。 ????萊茵說:“幫助初創(chuàng)公司是我最喜歡做的事情。我不可能在擔(dān)任獨(dú)立董事,、甚至非執(zhí)行董事長的同時(shí)給予梅格她所需要的時(shí)間。這是個(gè)技術(shù)問題,?!?/p> ????據(jù)稱,去年在李艾科(現(xiàn)在已下臺(tái))之前,,惠普曾力邀萊茵擔(dān)任公司CEO,,但遭到拒絕。不過,,他的確允諾,,一旦李艾科被聘為CEO,他將會(huì)加入惠普董事會(huì)并擔(dān)任董事長,。萊茵在接受CNBC采訪時(shí)被問及惠普董事會(huì)在他的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下的失職,,他岔開了話題,責(zé)怪記者不應(yīng)該問些陳年舊事(比如幾年前惠普調(diào)查人員冒充記者追查泄密來源的丑聞),,并表示當(dāng)初聘請(qǐng)李艾科的董事會(huì)與如今解雇他的董事會(huì)并不完全一樣,。此外,萊茵并未放棄公司近期撤離消費(fèi)產(chǎn)品領(lǐng)域的戰(zhàn)略舉措,。 ????作為風(fēng)險(xiǎn)投資家,,萊茵目前最關(guān)注的是資本密集型的清潔技術(shù)公司。他所投資的公司包括太陽能技術(shù)公司Ausra,、煤氣化技術(shù)公司巨點(diǎn)能源(GreatPoint Energy),、混合動(dòng)力汽車公司Fisker Automotive以及電動(dòng)車公司Th!nk。加入凱鵬華盈之前,,萊茵是甲骨文公司(Oracle)的總裁兼首席運(yùn)營官,。 |
????Ray Lane may now be executive chairman of Hewlett-Packard (HPQ), but it will not be a fulltime job. ????During an interview this morning with CNBC, Lane said that he would maintain his "day job" as a managing partner of Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. He added that his passion remains venture capital, but that he would be available to new HP CEO Meg Whitman whenever she needed help or advice. ????"My first love is helping start-ups," Lane said. "But I cannot give Meg the time she needs and still be independent and therefore be non-executive chair. So it is a technical definition." ????Lane reportedly was offered the CEO job last year before (now deposed) Leo Apotheker, but turned it down. He did, however, agree to join the board as chairman if Apotheker was hired as CEO. When asked today by CNBC about board dysfunction under his leadership, Lane basically deflected the question by by blaming reporters for asking about older issues (e.g., pretexting) and saying that the board responsible for hiring Apotheker is not the exact same board that fired him. Moreover, Lane did not back down from the company's recent strategic move away from consumer products. ????As a venture capitalist, Lane currently focuses most of his efforts on capital-intensive cleantech companies. His investments include Ausra (solar), GreatPoint Energy (coal-to-gas), Fisker Automotive (hybrid autos) and Th!nk (electric cars). Prior to joining Kleiner Perkins, he was president and chief operating officer of Oracle (ORCL). |
