Carly Fiona's New Book, "Tough Choices" Timely Release

Folks, Carly Fiona is back in the news with the release of her new book, Tough Choices. After the HP board fired her a few years ago, many people thought that was the last they would hear of the super business woman. In her new book, Carly points out whom she thinks was behind her firing at HP. Tom Perkins along with his other friend was the major instrument in her losing the jog. In a 60 Minutes interview, Carly was not mincing words. The interview with Carly came after Dunn's interview. Dunn is the most recent HP director to have faced trouble at the legendary company. She now said that Tom Perkins was also instrumental in her trouble by leaking board's decision and inner workings and going to the authorities. At the same time, Dunn revealed that she is going to start cancer treatment.

Carly is back. This book is the right platform she needed for her comeback. "The real reason the timing is fortuitous is that the book provides Fiorina a platform to reinvent herself for whatever comes next." She wants to re-engineer her career. "In her memoir emerging this week, "Tough Choices," Fiorina will contend that she was unfairly scrutinized as a woman in business and unproductively opposed by people who feared the big changes she had to make at HP....

"It's a book about what's required of change agents," she told a women-in-business conference recently at Babson College outside Boston. "The agents of change are always resisted. ... Some people fear the unknown, whatever it may be, even more than they fear the troublesome but known present."

Fiona had something to say about perception. "It is still true that women are caricatured and characterized differently from men," she said. "A woman lays people off, she's heartless," Fiorina said. "A man lays people off, he's decisive."
