Earlier this year, Xerox announced a remarkable leadership transition. After a 33 year career at the global document management company including eight very challenging and successful years as CEO, Anne Mulcahy (56), passed the helm to Ursala Burns (50), a 30 year company veteran and previously, the company president.Not only is this a groundbreaking woman to woman leadership transition, but Burns is also the first black female CEO to run a large publicly traded company in the USA.
Today, Xerox announced its biggest acquisition ever, the $6.4 billion acquisition of Affiliated Computer Services.
Congratulations are in order to Mulcahy, Burns and Xerox in blazing the trail and making American corporate leadership history!
