“Early in her career, Virginia M. Rometty, I.B.M.’s next chief executive, was offered a big job, but she felt she did not have enough experience. So she told the recruiter she needed time to think about it.

Pair it, Wear it
jcrew:
Let’s talk Tippi: Meet our new favorite sweater in merino, with chic three-quarter sleeves. Check back for a new pick every week.
