I looked pretty hard, and can't see how this person could pass GNG or other policies. Open to suggestions if others think otherwise. Baum des Lichtes (talk) 06:19, 4 July 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Weak keep: I was a bit surprised by this nomination of a known name, who, as the article External Links show, also has written an Opinion piece for the International Herald Tribune / New York Times. However I can also appreciate that the article is largely a list and references to CEO appointments at Lenovo, IBM, NCR etc. (and most recently Avnet, as I have added). These can perhaps be read as simply routine announcements rather than substantial coverage, but I think their aggregation is just about sufficient. AllyD (talk) 13:37, 18 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep He was CEO of Lenovo, which establishes notability for me. If you google his name and Lenovo, there are dozens of news articles about his tenure there.  MB  05:31, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. CEOs of really major companies can safely be assumed to be notable . Lenovo qualifies. I reorganized the article a little, as it had some characteristics of PR-style writing.  DGG ( talk ) 23:36, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
