Just as impressive is the fact that she never forgets the people behind the technology-her employees and customers are always front and center. Her values-led approach is exactly the type of leadership we need as we move into an exciting and unprecedented future driven by AI innovation and emerging technology".

Marc Benioff, founder and CEO of Salesforce, Chief Executive magazine's 2022 CEO of the Year and a member of this year's selection committee, said: "Lisa is a pioneering CEO who has transformed AMD into one of the greatest companies of our generation".

Her EQ is also a key ingredient to the company's success, and the team's performance on almost all metrics is second to none".
