In a yearly feature sponsored by Rolex, Time’s 2024 CEO of the Year, Lisa Su, wears a Rolex Datejust with diamond bezel. The Datejust is her personal timepiece and was not provided by the brand for the Time Magazine issue, which is slated to ship on Dec. 19.
According to Time, Lisa Su has led AMD through a remarkable transformation since taking the helm in 2014, when the company was struggling with debt and a $3 stock price. Under her leadership, AMD has grown into a $201-billion industry leader, competing with Intel and Nvidia; its stock now trades at around $125 per share.
“People are really motivated by ambitious goals,” she told Time.
Su was born in Taiwan and moved to the U.S. at the age of three. She went on to earn three degrees from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). She worked at Texas Instruments, IMB and Freescale Semiconductor in engineering and management.
