埃爾森?漢斯 所在公司:太陽(yáng)石油公司(Sunoco) 職務(wù):首席執(zhí)行官 公司500強(qiáng)排名:252 ????據(jù)埃爾森?漢斯的母校萊斯大學(xué)(Rice University)透露,大學(xué)時(shí)代的她無所不能:她加入了學(xué)校第一支校際籃球隊(duì),參加過游行樂隊(duì),干過學(xué)生會(huì)還當(dāng)過校報(bào)的體育欄目編輯。這一切可能為她今后的事業(yè)打下了良好的基礎(chǔ)。 ????1978年,埃爾森?漢斯從萊斯大學(xué)畢業(yè)后又在哈佛商學(xué)院(Harvard Business School)拿到了工商管理碩士學(xué)位,隨后就職于能源巨頭殼牌公司(Shell)。就在通往公司高層的通行證向她招手的時(shí)候,厄爾森漢斯意識(shí)到,要想繼續(xù)留在公司,她和丈夫就得去歐洲工作。 ????那時(shí),總部位于費(fèi)城的太陽(yáng)石油公司向她拋出了首席執(zhí)行官這一橄欖枝,這也使她成為了第一位統(tǒng)領(lǐng)石油巨頭的女掌門。“這個(gè)職位對(duì)我來說再合適不過了”,2008年她曾對(duì)萊斯雜志(Rice Magazine)透露。“因?yàn)槲以谑拖掠萎a(chǎn)業(yè)——石油及化工產(chǎn)品行業(yè)——已經(jīng)打拼了28個(gè)年頭,而這正是太陽(yáng)石油公司的領(lǐng)域。” |
Lynn L. Elsenhans Company: Sunoco Position: CEO Global 500 Rank: 252 ????According to Lynn Elsenhans' alma mater, Rice University, she did it all as a student: she was on the school's first women's intercollegiate basketball team, in the marching band, served on student government, and was the sports editor for the student newspaper. A case of foreshadowing, perhaps. ????After graduating from Rice in 1978, Elsenhans headed to Harvard Business School, earned her MBA, and ended up at energy giant Shell. As the keys to the corporate kingdom came within her reach, Elsenhans realized that she and her husband would have to move to Europe if she wanted to stay at the company. ????Around that time, Philadelphia-based Sunoco offered Elsenhans the CEO spot, making her the first female to run the oil giant. "It's a really good fit for me," she told Rice Magazine in 2008. "I worked for 28 years in the downstream part of the oil business -- oil and chemical products -- and that's what Sunoco does." |
