About this video
Taiwan-born Su immigrated to the U.S. as a child. Now she is one of just 26 U.S. self-made women and 26 hired executives to accumulate 10-figure fortunes.
Just two years after joining chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices in 2012, IBM veteran Lisa Su was tapped to take the top job. It was a big promotion for the then 43-year-old, but also a gamble. At the time, the company was floundering. It had laid off around a quarter of its staff and its share price hovered around $2. Patrick Moorhead, a former AMD exec, remembers it as “deader than dead.”
