慧與（Hewlett Packard Enterprise）的首席執行官梅格?惠特曼即將結束六年的任期，卸下職務。在此期間，她帶領的轉型計劃并未取得太大成效。

接替惠特曼的將是慧與的現任總裁安東尼奧?奈里。他將從明年2月1日起成為公司的首席執行官和董事會成員。

惠特曼在一份聲明中表示：“我為自2011年加入惠普以來所取得的成就感到無比自豪。現在是安東尼奧和新一代領導層執掌慧與的時候了。我對他們信心十足，相信他們將能夠繼續建立起一個偉大的公司，慧與將在未來茁壯成長。”

惠特曼領導的慧與經歷了一段動蕩時期，隨著云計算的興起，這家數據中心硬件廠商表現掙扎。亞馬遜（Amazon）和微軟（Microsoft）等云計算提供商根據需求出售計算資源，這使得公司購買自己的數據中心的需求遭到了擠壓。

為了更好地在不斷變化的信息技術行業展開競爭，惠特曼引導著惠普（Hewlett Packard）拆分成了兩個公司。慧與繼承了原公司的數據中心業務，而惠普公司（HP, Inc.）則繼承了個人電腦和打印業務。

把一家歷史悠久的硅谷科技巨頭拆分成兩家市值數十億美元的公司，是一項巨大的工程。她的理念是這樣可以創造出兩家規模更小、更加靈活的公司，從而在不斷變化的科技領域更好地競爭。

惠特曼之前曾擔任在線商城eBay的首席執行官。

Hewlett Packard Enterprise CEO Meg Whitman is stepping down following a six-year tenure during which a turnaround plan she championed failed to gain much traction.

Replacing Whitman will be HPE’s current president, Antonio Neri. He will become the company’s CEO and board member on Feb. 1.

“I’m incredibly proud of all we’ve accomplished since I joined HP in 2011,” Whitman said in a statement. “Now is the right time for Antonio and a new generation of leaders to take the reins of HPE. I have tremendous confidence that they will continue to build a great company that will thrive well into the future.”

Whitman has led HPE during a time of turbulence, as the data center hardware maker has struggled amid the rise of cloud computing. Cloud computing providers like Amazon and Microsoft sell computing resources on-demand, which eliminates some of the need for companies to buy their own data center gear.

To better compete in a changing IT industry, Whitman oversaw Hewlett Packard’s splitinto two companies. Hewlett Packard Enterprise inherited the original company’s data center business, while HP, Inc. took over the personal computer and printing business.

It was a massive undertaking to cleave one of Silicon Valley’s long-time technology giants into two multi-billion companies. The idea was that by creating two smaller, more nimble companies, they would be able to better compete in the changing technology landscape.

Whitman was previously CEO of online marketplace eBay.
