Forbes has an excellent article from yesterday about Carly Fiorina, a controversial figure who was ousted from Hewlett-Packard. According to the article she is now writing a book. Part of the Forbes article reads, "So it was only a matter of time before Fiorina, one of the most polarizing figures in the recent history of U.S. business, put pen to paper to tell the tale of her business career."
While Fiorina was well-known for working at HP, she was squarely in the telecom sector when she worked as a senior executive at Lucent Technologies before becoming the first woman to head up a Dow company. Since she was in the telecom sector working for one of the largest telecom players, she no doubt has some interesting insights on VoIP and how it is changing the telecom landscape. I for one cannot wait to hear her keynote at Internet Telephony Conference & Expo.
Internet Telephony Conference & Expo has (as far as I know) an exclusive by having Carly Fiorina publicly speak for the first time before a large tradeshow audience at the October VoIP tradeshow. This on top of having other heavyweight keynoters that include former FCC chairman Michael Powell and Skype's CEO Niklas Zennström.
I hope to see there. I'll even save a seat up front if you want. It'll only cost you one package of Reese's Peanut Butter cups. Then again, it might look pretty strange if hundreds of people start handing me candy, not to mention I'm on a diet. Well, come anyway. Unlike Fenway Park, every seat is a good seat.
