McNealy graduated from the Economics Department of Harvard University with an MBA from Stanford University. Sun Microelectronics was founded in 1982 and has been the CEO of the company since 1984. The annual salary in 2005 was $65,438 +0.2 million.
Due to the poor performance of the company, McNealy, the chairman and CEO of Sun Microelectronics, known as the "Internet madman", finally announced on April 24th that he would leave the CEO throne after 22 years. But McNealy is still the chairman of the company.
According to the financial report released by Sun Microelectronics, the company's net loss in one quarter was $2,654,387,000, or $0.06 per share.
McNealy, who resigned as CEO, will devote himself to developing the relationship between Sun Microelectronics and governments and associations around the world, and play an important role in the expansion of major strategic partnerships.
He is an ideal leader.
At the resignation press conference, McNealy, 565,438+0 years old, said, "I personally made the decision to resign, because this is a critical moment for Sun Microelectronics, and I would like to share this moment with you. In addition, I will fully support Schwartz's work. "
McNealy spoke highly of his successor Schwartz: "He has been the driving force of the company since 1996 joined the company. His leadership has played a decisive role in the company's efficient operation, stable and competitive product line, key M&A initiatives and major partnerships, and the company's positioning in the world and in various industries. "
I was "swallowed by others"
1982, McNealy co-founded Sun Microelectronics Company with three other young people. At that time, Sun Microelectronics was just a training ground for four students with certain ideas. However, from 65438 to 0984, McNealy, who was only 29 years old, became CEO of the company. His extraordinary market vision, innovative market strategy and passionate leadership style quickly attracted people's attention.
As he himself said: "In the past 20 years, Sun Microelectronics has nearly 40,000 employees worldwide. We started as a small engineering workstation manufacturer, and now we have developed into a global leading provider of various products, technologies and services such as network servers, data storage systems, system software and network basic applications. "
McNealy is good at using faith to drive employees and boost morale. After working hard in the shopping mall for many years, he shouted the slogan "Either swallow others or be swallowed by others".
Zeng Lizhi "destroyed Microsoft"
Sun Microelectronics and Microsoft are two famous software providers in Silicon Valley. These two companies have only been established for a few years, and they are the crystallization of a group of enthusiastic young people. McNealy once proudly said: "Destroying Microsoft is the task of each of us."
He often makes amazing remarks in public, criticizes Microsoft and once said Microsoft's. NET is. No. Brave Silicon Valley heroes tried to form an anti-Microsoft front alliance against Microsoft, a huge trust evil force. At the beginning of this year, he joined forces with IBM, Intel and other companies to appeal to the European Union and attack Microsoft.
The above are reference materials. Are you interested in Sun? In fact, I admire Sun very much. I probably got to know Sun from learning java. Sun dominates a lot of open source software. Sun has a unique corporate culture and is the boss of the open source community. At the same time, its founder, McNealy, has a unique personality charm and the style of daring to compete with Microsoft is very commendable;
I think that the longer the time goes on, the more likely it is that ibm's acquisition plan will fail; In fact, Sun has many long-term strategies in cloud computing and other technologies. So, I really hope to see the day when Sun comes back.
