Anglo American



Cynthia Carroll, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Anglo American (2007 – 2013)

Anglo American plc is a multinational mining company based in Johannesburg, South Africa and London,
United Kingdom. It is the world’s largest producer of platinum, with around 40% of world output, as well
as being a major producer of diamonds, copper, nickel, iron ore and metallurgical and thermal coal. In
2007, Cynthia Carroll was appointed as CEO of the company, the first outsider (non-South African) to
manage what was a very top-down, male-dominated, hierarchical organisation.

appointed as CEO. Consequently, her first focus was on safety. In 2007, her first year as chief executive,

killed at the mine. She was told at the end of the day that they had yet another fatality. She gave orders
to shut down the mine complex, to assess the infrastructure and the standards, and to work to retrain
people. She also gave instructions that people will only be returning to work once they feel confident
that they will be working in safe conditions. It was a bold decision that affected around 28 000 mine
