During his leadership, IBM grew from a medium-sized business to one of the dozen largest industrial corporations in the world. When Mr. Watson became Chief Executive Officer in 1956, IBM employed 72,500 people and had a gross income of $892 million. When he stepped down in 1971, employees numbered more than 270,000 and gross revenue was $8.3 billion. In January 1952 he was elected president of the company. In May 1956 Mr. Watson was made chief executive officer and he was elected chairman of the board in May 1961.
