Yahoos New CEO is Carol Bartz

January 14, 2009 by Jason McElweenie

Yahoo has officially announce Carol Bartz as Jerry Yang’s replacement at Yahoo!

    ALeqM5ilc57iWA5Z-_LrRtrt7RNFPi4J4Q Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO), a leading global brand and one of the world’s most trafficked Internet destinations, announced today that Carol Bartz, a veteran technology executive who was most recently Executive Chairman of Autodesk (NASDAQ: ADSK), has been named Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board of Directors, effective immediately.

    Prior to becoming Executive Chairman of Autodesk in 2006, Bartz, 60, led Autodesk as CEO for 14 years, transforming the company into a leader in computer-aided design software. During her tenure as CEO, revenues increased from less than $300 million to more than $1.5 billion, and the company’s share price increased nearly ten-fold.

    In addition to turning around Autodesk, Bartz’s extensive executive experience includes hands-on responsibility for leading global operations, engineering, sales and marketing organizations for large technology and engineering companies including Sun Microsystems, Digital Equipment Corporation and 3M.

What does this mean for a future Yahoo/Microsoft merger? No one is saying anything yet but some sort of deal seems imminent

One thing is for sure at least Guy Kawasaki is off the hook.

For now 😉
