After this conversation, Hurd rejoined Dunn and Baskins and summarized his encounter with Keyworth.
Fiorina told me she never had any doubt that the leakers were Keyworth and Perkins.
In the early 1990s, Keyworth was thought to be the unofficial leaker for David Packard himself.
As each director expressed his or her opinion, it became clear that sentiment was turning against Keyworth.
Finally, Ryan revealed that the leak had come from Keyworth, and asked Keyworth to address the board.
As he walked briskly down the hall, he passed Keyworth, waiting anxiously for news of his fate.
In late 2004, Keyworth suggested that Perkins be asked to return, arguing that Hewlett-Packard needed his technical expertise.
The former document would be for Keyworth to be fully informed, the latter to share with the President.
He said he had told Keyworth that the leaker had been identified and then waited for him to confess.
At some point during the meeting, Keyworth was asked to leave the room.
Dunn, Perkins, and Keyworth were pleased that they had worked together so effectively.
Keyworth was named as the likely source of the leak to Dawn Kawamoto.
They had received a preliminary report from Hunsaker identifying Keyworth as the leaker.
True, Keyworth is a promiscuous leaker, but he has always been a leaker.
That is, if Packard wanted to send a message to the outside world, he sent it through Keyworth, who then leaked.
But for other governance experts, the real damage was caused by the source of the leak, former HP board member George Keyworth.
Still, all but one of the Hewlett-Packard directors with close ties to Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard, including Perkins and Keyworth, are now gone.
Keyworth said communication among departments and consolidation of help desk resources and information will bring help desk operations in sync with year 2000 projects.
When confronted by Dunn, Keyworth refused a request to resign from the board, though he's not expected to be renominated at HP's next shareholder meeting.
Meanwhile, Dunn, Perkins, and Keyworth began searching for a new C.
Fiorina, accustomed to hearing Keyworth mock Dunn, sensed the new alignment.
Keyworth generally leaks to portray HP in the most positive way.
The first was Mark Keyworth, who became TixToGo's VP of marketing.
Both Perkins and Carly Fiorina are convinced that the entire investigation was a thinly disguised effort by Dunn to get Perkins and Keyworth off the board.
Perkins was prepared by now to propose that Dunn be removed as chairman, but Keyworth and another director, Lucille S. Salhany, persuaded him to hold off.
On May 17, 2006, Robert Ryan, the chairman of the audit committee, asked Keyworth if they could meet privately at seven the next morning, before the board meeting.
While Perkins and Keyworth pressed their campaign to oust Fiorina, Dunn, who had been allied with neither the Fiorina supporters nor the technology-committee entrepreneurs, began tilting toward the latter.
Perkins and Keyworth now argued that Dunn, because she was acceptable to both factions on the board, was the best person to tell Fiorina that she was being fired.
Perkins and Keyworth had become intimately familiar with the inner workings of Hewlett-Packard, and with the strengths and weaknesses of its top managers, and were aware of growing unhappiness with Fiorina.
Perkins and Keyworth held extraordinary power within the company.
