本周一，高樂氏公司表示，該公司總裁也是該公司長期增長計劃的關(guān)鍵設(shè)計師琳達(dá)·倫德爾下月將成為公司的新一任掌舵人。自此，美國500強(qiáng)企業(yè)里的女性CEO人數(shù)也將創(chuàng)下一個新的紀(jì)錄。
琳達(dá)·倫德爾自從2003年起就在高樂氏公司擔(dān)任高管。她預(yù)計將在9月14日正式接任CEO。如果沒有意外的話，屆時美國500強(qiáng)企業(yè)的女性CEO人數(shù)將達(dá)到創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的38人。
倫德爾將接替擔(dān)任CEO已經(jīng)6年的本諾·多勒，而多勒將繼續(xù)擔(dān)任高樂氏的董事會主席。倫德爾已經(jīng)在今年5月被任命為總裁，此次職務(wù)調(diào)整也是在為她接任CEO鋪路。這些年來，倫德爾曾經(jīng)擔(dān)任過高樂氏的好幾個重要職位，對公司的內(nèi)部運作有深入了解，她還負(fù)責(zé)過全球的清潔用品業(yè)務(wù)。在加盟高樂氏之初，她主要負(fù)責(zé)木炭和殺蟲劑產(chǎn)品的銷售。在此之前，她還曾在寶潔公司從事過銷售工作。
去年，42歲的倫德爾負(fù)責(zé)起草了高樂氏的IGNITE戰(zhàn)略，該戰(zhàn)略旨在深化高樂氏在保健品和營養(yǎng)品等新領(lǐng)域的存在，吸引更多的線上銷售，并且刺激更多的創(chuàng)新。高樂氏一直想降低對清潔產(chǎn)品的依賴——雖然在疫情期間，它的清潔產(chǎn)品銷量一直居高不下。與此同時，高樂氏還進(jìn)軍環(huán)保領(lǐng)域，推出了可降解清潔濕巾等產(chǎn)品。
倫德爾在一份聲明中表示:“盡管消費者和社會的行為和需求都在發(fā)生變化，但我們?nèi)匀粫^續(xù)在公共衛(wèi)生領(lǐng)域發(fā)揮重要作用。”
應(yīng)該說，倫德爾的前任給她留下了一座非常穩(wěn)固的江山。高樂氏衛(wèi)生與健康部門第四財季的收入增長了三分之一，該部門的銷售額占了公司總銷售額的40%以上，其產(chǎn)品主要包括清潔產(chǎn)品和膳食補充劑等。此外，高樂氏旗下大部分產(chǎn)品的銷量都有所上揚。除了最著名的漂白劑產(chǎn)品，高樂氏的產(chǎn)品還包括派素清潔劑（Pine-Sol）、Liquid-Plumr管道疏通劑、Fresh Step貓砂、Glad垃圾袋、Kingsford木炭和Hidden Valley沙拉醬等。去年該公司的總收入為67億美元。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

The Clorox Company said on Monday that its president and the key architect of its long term growth plan would take the reins of the household goods company next month, setting a new record for the number of women CEOs at the helm of a Fortune 500 company.
Once Linda Rendle, an executive at Clorox since 2003, takes the corner office on September 14, the number of female chief executives leading a Fortune 500 company will rise to an all-time high of 38 women.
Rendle will replace Clorox's CEO of nearly six years, Benno Dorer, who will continue to chair the company's board. Rendle, named president in May in a move that telegraphed her ascent to the CEO job, has held several major roles at Clorox over the years that have given her a deep understanding of the company's inner workings, including leading global operations for its cleaning business. She started at Clorox in sales for the company's charcoal and insecticides businesses. Before that, Rendle had worked for Procter & Gamble in different sales jobs.
Last year, the 42-year-old oversaw the drafting of Clorox's IGNITE strategy, an initiative aimed at deepening the company's presence in newer areas like wellness and nutraceuticals, drawing in more online sales, and spurring more innovation. The company has long wanted to be less reliant on its namesake cleaning products, whose sales have been stratospheric during the pandemic, and has been moving into environmentally friendly spaces with products like compostable cleaning wipes.
"We continue to have a significant role supporting public health, given the ongoing needs and changing behaviors of our consumers and communities," Rendle said in a statement.
She will take over a company in very good shape. In its fiscal fourth quarter, revenue rose by a third at Clorox’s health and wellness division, which generates more than 40% of total sales and includes cleaning products and supplements. What's more, sales gains were strong in most categories: Beyond its famous bleach, Clorox's portfolio of products includes Pine-Sol, Liquid-Plumr, Fresh Step kitty litter, Glad garbage bags, Kingsford charcoal, and Hidden Valley salad dressing. Total company revenues last year came to $6.7 billion.
