10 Master Managers in the World

1. Anne mulcahy

Anne Mulcahy is the former CEO of Xerox, serving from 2001 to 2010. She is a master manger in the world. Because anne turned things around when her company faced a financial crisis. Yes, I can directly relate. She never aspired to the role of CEO, but neither did she shy away from the opportunity to lead when elected by the board of Xerox in 2001. During her tenure she was required to reduce the company’s workforce by 30% and later eliminated the entire desktop portion of Xerox.

   Anne solved all problems faced at the time. First of all she needed support from Xerox's leadership team, she met personally with the top 100 executives. She let them know how dire the situation was and asked them if they were prepared to commit. A full 98 of the 100 executives decided to stay, and the bulk of them are still with the company today.

             As CEO, Mulcahy did not become paralyzed trying to assuage angry shareholders. Instead, she headed out to the field, where her first priority was to win over Xerox's customers by focusing on their complaints. She refused to cut back on research and development or field sales, despite shareholder petitions to shut down all R&D. Instead, she attacked Xerox's bloated infrastructure, sold off pieces of Fuji Xerox, the company's crown jewel, and farmed out manufacturing to Flextronics. She reached a painful settlement with the SEC. Along the way, she had to eliminate 28,000 jobs and billions in expenses, but she saved the company.
