Over the next month or so, there may be some openings for the role of CEO at our nation’s banks. If Ken Lewis, Vikram Pandit and friends are to get canned, many would like to know who the Christ would be willing to take their places. While we’d rather not be restricted to thinking up candidates from inside the box, given that there are slew of people whose names would go great with “Bank of America Chief,” among them Stan O’Neal, Gary Busey, Cliff Asness and either of the two Coreys, others are taking the opportunity to put female-only names in the hopper. For those of you familiar with their work, do we see it happening for any of these would-be lady CEOs?
1) Heidi Miller will be the first person on most recruitment lists for large financial services company CEOs. She is currently the head of the JPMorgan’s huge securities and treasury management operations. Before her current job she was CFO of Bank One. She is on the boards of Merck and General Mills. Her boss, Jamie Dimon, is at an age where he is likely to run JP Morgan for another decade. She will be a bank CEO by the end of the year.
2) Sallie Krawcheck, who is only in her early 40s, was pushed out of Citigroup in a dispute with current CEO VIkram Pandit, a man she may end up replacing. She was extremely well respected on Wall St. when she was the chairman of the big financial research firm Sanford C. Bernstein. She served as CIti’s CFO for three years and then ran the company’s wealth management unit. She is as well qualified to run a large bank as anyone in America.
3) Pat Callahan is the other candidate who would have to be near the top of any recruiting list for large bank CEOs. She is the Wells Fargo executive vice president who is handling the merger integration of Wachovia, great training for running another large financial institution. Earlier in her career she ran wholesale banking operations and financial operations.
Ten Women Who Should Be Big Company CEOs [24/7 Wall Street]
Zoe?
Chicks can’t be CEOs. Everybody knows that, every 28 days our financial system would be on the verge of collapse.
She’s cute … that can’t be MW … no wrestling flab.
That is Krawcheck
There are a lot of women “batting clenaup” lately.
@4- that’s sallie krawcheck.
@3- hi, thanks for information we all got yesterday.
The chick can’t hold da smoke
sorry, I’m a day late and a dollar short.
I’d bang her.
@10 MW? you must be desperate. Then again it takes all sorts.

@10
The correct nomenclature around here is:
“I’d hit it”
The Other Dead Guy From Delaware
What about Fiorina???? She’s got HP experience!!
~Guy Who Never Reads a Newspaper
None of those women, and I mean none, could hold a candle to Frau Farbissina.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the ladies. I mean they rev my engines, but they don’t belong in the executive suite.
No way, not in a million years. Wall Street is one of the last, strongest old boys clubs.
how about that p*ssy tim geithner? she would love to do service on your company
TGFD is really surprised that not one of you goons has posted something like, “Yeah, I’d like to clear MW’s throat.”
The title line was screaming out at you trools.
Guest@#11…
The photo is not one of MW. BTW, TGFD likes how you signed off.
The Guy from Delaware (Once and Future Dead)
It is masters of the universe, not lady masters of the universe, and that is a scientific fact.
I hope The Guy From Delaware gets hit by a bus.
no Zoe?
“goons”???
and to think, I almost cried at your funeral.
You got to love the arrant Christophobia of Frau Bess’s comment, “…many would like to know who the Christ would be willing to take their places.”
Well the how the Anne Fucking Frank does anyone know who would make a good CEO? Go ask Hashem and then enjoy a BLT.
Guest@#20…
Just a bus?
Gee. I thought you might like to see something more exciting hit TGFD. Something like that Pontiac Scooter shown in today’s “Magic Carpet Ride” thread photo.
I’ll quote another DB poster. “Thanks for playing, though.”
The Guy from Delaware (Once and Future Dead)
I’m all for it. Let the girls get a chance to shit themselves on stage for a change.
- Not Dick Cheney
@23- “what the christ,” “who the christ,” and variants thereof are funny. get over yourself.
You Caucasians are funny to me!
You bible thumping, gay-hating, ultra-conservatives/liberals are just as bad if not worse as the “tyrants” and “dictators” you say you loathe.
Women would much better run a company or government than men. The good ole boys club is coming to an end. Populism will make sure they are sent to the gallows.

I submit exhibit A: http://longorshortcapital.com/pomegranate-capital-thinks-women-can-run-money-better-is-wrong.htm
I’d give the lady in the photo a ‘raise’.
“Pat Callahan is the Wells Fargo executive vice president who is handling the merger integration of Wachovia, great training for running another large financial institution.”
Hell, TGFD could do a better job than the combined work of Pat and Mr. Stumbles at WFC.
WhoTF couldn’t with a bottomless trough of 0% gov’t money and a minimum knowledge of hide & seek?
Guest@#13…
If you picked up a newspaper from time to time, you might know that Carly Fiorina is not happening. Unatractive is a kind description. Her record as CEO at HP was also dismal.
BTW, who is that chick in the photo? Anyone know?
The Guy from Delaware
It makes sense, now that there’s no real incentive to be a CEO of any of these firms.
And since the pay is going to be about 30% of what it once was, I think placing bitches in the suite is logical.
Can’t wait for the first CEO sex tape.
@30 That is Sallie K when she was younger. I would know. Me and my buddies gang-banged her in the boom boom room. Then we had to give her a big desk to avoid a lawsuit.
“Heidi” must be the first name of all female CEOs.
I would prefer to sleep naked with Ken Lewis than Meredith Whitney or Sallie Krawcheck. KL just has some sort of animal magnetism that TGFD really appreciates.
The Guy From Delaware
Women could never make it as Wall Street CEO’s. Their tits get in the way of a good golf swing.
Ben Wright
@35 Asian chick CEOs?
@26 (aka, Mr. Abe Foxman masquerading as “guest”)
Please take your discrimination complaints somewhere that someone might care about them. @23 is onto something. We understand that since this example doesn’t affect your people you don’t get upset; spare us the hypocrisy next time you cry wolf.
Guest@#34…
Is TGFD’s presence here on DB so bothersome to you that you insist on slandering me so?
IF so, please post some material that is at least interesting, and possibly amusing.
The Guy from Delaware
@19 – I’m a man who discovered alpha and built AIG out of CDSs and leverage. That’s what kind of man I am. They’re just women with small brains. With brains a third the size of ours. It’s science
The more important question is what sort of opportunities will there be for minority management of our largest financial institutions.
-Maxine Waters
This is what happens when the DB audience is 85% men. They make dumbass comments about how women can’t lead. I’ve seen some pussy men who can’t lead. Gender is irrelevant. Besides none of these women are dumb enough to run Citi or BofA. Their dick doesn’t rule their lives.
@39
you look like a blueberry!
@23
you are gay.
