Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After the merger with Compaq Computers, Inc., one of the key issues for CEO Carly Fiorina was to communicate a clear vision for the future of the company. The merger was controversial, and she faced criticism from shareholders and industry analysts who were skeptical about the benefits of the merger. Communicating a clear vision was crucial to gain support and establish a sense of direction for the newly merged company. While other issues such as designing a new logo or the antitrust charges were important, they were not the key issue for CEO Fiorina. Deutsch Bank loan was an issue but not the key issue as it did not directly impact the company's direction.
