My Take
Carly Fiorina interests me as a figure who kept stepping into the line of fire. Becoming the first woman to run a Fortune Top-20 company, leading Hewlett-Packard, then pivoting into Senate and presidential campaigns, she never chose the quiet path. Her tenure remains genuinely contested, and I don't think pretending otherwise honors her. What I respect is the willingness to be judged publicly while holding a stated conviction. Whatever one concludes about her record, breaking that corporate ceiling cleared sightlines for women who came after. I read her as a hard-edged, consequential figure worth taking seriously rather than caricaturing.
