CEO Ellen Kullman Shoots the Lights Out!

|Jim Cramer of CNBC calls her:
One of the best, but least-heralded CEOs in America.
That’s Ellen Kullman, CEO of Dupont — a woman leader to watch!
Despite the downbeat prospects for the housing market, Kullman’s company, DuPont, reported yesterday that quarterly profits tripled and the company had strong results in all segments across the globe.
Here’s Cramer on CNBC’s Stop Trading. You can hear at 0:56 where Cramer struggles with “this person” – “this CEO” – “not this woman”…and Erin Burnett chimes in: “that woman kind of makes you think of other people whose daughter is getting married….”
To Cramer’s credit, as crazed as he gets on television as part of his public persona, he never lets gender get in the way of judging capability. Cramer was also a stalwart advocate of “that woman” in 2008 – Hillary Clinton.
Here’s Erin Burnett’s full interview of Ellen Kullman:
Ellen Kullman, you go girl!!!
Gretchen Carlson
Claudia Poccia
Jacki Zehner
Ellen Kullman has a BS in ENGINEERING! To me, that makes her 100 times more qualified to be a CEO (and she is a woman…whoot whoot!)
I heart Kullman.
