Bartz is going to be a great CEO. I admire and respect the woman immensely! Sometimes what a company or an organization needs is simply a great leader -- somebody who can inspire the worker bees to do what worker bees do best.
I'm legitimately impressed - she's really between a rock and a hard place with how she communicates. Yahoo needs a "regime change" feel to it, and Yang was always very informal, no punctuation, etc. So she's got to be different - but, Yahoo can't weather bureaucracy, formality, nonsense right now. I think she's being different and professional while casual at the same time. That's got to be a hard line to walk. Feeling better for Yahoo's prospects for the future than at any time since I ditched Yahoo mail a couple years ago for Gmail.
