She became CEO of Autodesk in 1992. According to Forbes, Y transformed Autodesk from an aimless maker of PC software into a leader of computer-aided design software, targeting architects and builders."She is credited with instituting and promoting Autodesk's "3F" or "fail fast-forward" concept — the idea of moulding a company to risk failure in some missions, but to be resilient and move on quickly when failure occurs. She stepped down as CEO in 2006 and became the executive chairman of the board.
