2012财富高管梦之队重装登场

    5.唐•汤普森

    职务：首席运营官

    现任职务：董事长兼CEO，麦当劳

    汤普森于7月1日成为快餐业巨头麦当劳（McDonald's）的CEO。此前，他一直是一位世界一流的首席运营官，经营着全球33,500家餐厅有两年多。麦当劳在美国推出了麦咖啡（McCafé），这是公司超过35年以来最大规模的一次产品上线，使每家连锁店的年销售额增加超过125,000美元，而汤普森是这次活动的主要参与者。芝加哥出生的汤普森以“公司利益为先”而著名：3月份，麦当劳宣布汤普森将接替任职已久的时任CEO吉姆•斯金纳，但汤普森却避开了所有媒体，拒绝接受任何采访，原因是出于对老上司的尊敬。

    5.Don Thompson

    Position:Chief operating officer

    Currently:President and CEO, McDonald's

    Before he took over as CEO of the fast-food giant on July 1, Thompson established himself as a world-class operating chief, running some 33,500 restaurants around the globe for more than two years. He was a key player in the U.S. McCafé launch, the company's largest in more than 35 years, which has generated more than $125,000 in additional annual sales per store. The Chicago native (he was raised near the old Cabrini-Green housing project) has a reputation for putting the needs of the company ahead of his own: When McDonald's announced in March that he would succeed longtime CEO Jim Skinner, Thompson stayed out of the spotlight, declining interviews out of respect for his boss.
