Carpenter had also missed a few other appointments – all on Monday mornings – but no one had felt the need to report it because he had called to…

After Hewlett-Packard fired CEO Carly Fiorina, new CEO Mark Hurd found himself in charge of a struggling, dysfunctional corporation. The strategic vision Fiorina had been using to guide the company—“digital, virtual, mobile, personal”— was vague, and no one knew if it was being executed or not. A confusing matrix structure blurred accountability lines and slowed decision making, and the company reward system was so complex that no one knew how performance affected their bonuses. Talented executives were leaving, and H-P was having trouble attracting new ones.If those troubles weren’t enough, H-P was struggling financially.

And when a board member leaked confidential information to the press, the subsequent scandal (involving spying and phone tapping) ended with Hurd having to testify before Congress…
