Cramer: What Leaders Can Learn From UPS CEO Carol Tome - The Street

Jim Cramer has been focused on earnings season and he's taking a close look at UPS.

"What defines a winner in this earnings season? Let's take United Parcel (UPS) , with a stock that vaulted 19 points on the strength of what looked like an amazing quarter, but that's not what drove the stock higher at all. Yes, the gross margins were amazing and the pricing per package was unbelievably good, but what you needed to know about UPS is that the CEO, Carol Tome, has repeatedly been dismissed as someone who couldn't tame the beast, the unwieldy package delivery company. That's even despite that she had been on the board since 2003 and had seen what had gone wrong, even as she was the dominant CFO of her time, when she ran the finances of Home Depot (HD)," wrote Jim Cramer in his Real Money column Tuesday night.
