Getting to Know CAROL TOMÉ, CFO of HOME DEPOT
Tomé started at Home Depot in 1995 and moved up to CFO in 2001. At that time, the
country was in a building frenzy and Home Depot was opening new stores left and right.
Once building slowed later in the decade, Tomé’s financial focus turned from opening new
stores to implementing new technology.

At one time this company was the largest automobile maker in the world. Due to se-

billion government-backed loan and an additional $43 billion government invest-
ment in the company helped it survive. It is now attempting a comeback as a much
smaller company. Name that company.
