Intel's new CEO may choose candidates / Economic Daily

Over the years, Intel has been promoted to CEO by the president or chief operating officer. There is clearly no clear successor. Within five years of the resignation of CEO, Ke Zaiqi overthrew the mentor system for many years and dispersed leadership under the direction of the board of directors. The right, therefore, led to the resignation of a number of high-ranking executives, which also led to the lack of candidates for the bench, which is bound to find out the old Intel colleagues who were forced to retreat or leave their jobs.

In fact, Intel's last CEO was unexpectedly short. Former CEO Paul Otelleni announced his intention to resign in November 2012, leaving the board unprepared. Intel spent six months looking for new candidates, said to consider five internal and five The external candidate, the final decision was promoted to the chief operating officer Ke Zaiqi. Ke Zaiqi is the sixth CEO of Intel. Since Intel was founded in 1968, it has not appointed an external candidate to take over the CEO.

Intel is currently the chief executive of Treasury Secretary Robert Swan. He told the company through video that he did not intend to remain as CEO for a long time. Swan was only taken from eBay a year and a half ago, some analysts believe that If the board chooses Swan, he will be willing to stay as CEO.

Analysts believe that if Intel is a foreigner, I am afraid it is not too familiar. New Street Research analyst Pierre Ferragu named two people, one is VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger, another It is Diane Bryant, who is in charge of cloud business. Both of them are from Intel. They not only understand the culture, but also introduce external opinions. Brian is also one of the CEO candidates who were named but later resigned.

The former CEO of Globalfoundries, Sanjay Jha of Qualcomm, who was also listed as the CEO of Intel in the past. Jia Sanjie left Grofund earlier this year.

However, people familiar with the matter pointed out that Intel is a giant in the semiconductor industry, and the design and manufacturing techniques involved are extremely complicated. The board may prefer internal candidates. One of them is Venkata Renduchintala, who was excavated from Qualcomm in 2015. Responsible for microprocessor development, implementation of plans to overcome the next generation chip production delay.

In Ke Zaiqi, Intel promoted the largest leadership changeover program ever. In addition to the 52-year-old Lunduqin Tara, the original EBay Finance Minister Shi Wang was also airborne by outside, in order to inject traditional personal computer chips into Intel. Strength outside.

Another candidate is 44-year-old Navin Shenoy, who is a director who is really promoted from the grassroots level. He is currently in charge of the data center business and has been in charge of the PC business. He has been operating very well in both careers. People familiar with the matter believe that His appointment as CEO may leave Lunduqin Tarain and the CEO to leave, leaving Intel a professional.
