It took a lot of hard work and some tough love for Pat Gelsinger to make his way to his dream job as CEO of Intel (INTC). After Gelsinger started at the company in 1979, he made it his mission statement to climb to the top of the corporate ladder, helping Intel become a leading US tech company, not to mention a household name. But he couldn’t have done it without his no-frills mentor and some bumps in the road along the way.
Gelsinger likes to say that he put the silicon in Silicon Valley. And after witnessing a systematic decline in US chip making following a long period of outsourcing to China and other countries, he’s looking to achieve that once again by bringing semiconductor manufacturing back stateside.
The charismatic CEO sat down with Yahoo Finance’s Akiko Fujita at Intel headquarters to speak about how Intel is bringing chip manufacturing back to the US, and how he became the leader that he is today. He attributes a lot of his success to his mentor, Andy Grove, the former CEO of Intel. Gelsinger was taught to give tough feedback to his employees, as well as maintain a level of honesty to build trust.
Intel’s success is being reflected in the market and its stock price as it continues to recover back to levels where it once stood as the leading developer in technology. As Intel continues to make strides, it’s bringing with it the US semiconductor industry as a whole.
Lead This Way is a new series that features big interviews with the business leaders shaping our world today. In these one-on-one conversations, we reveal how their approach to leadership helped them become Wall Street titans.
