Best Boss

It’s a triumphant homecoming for Intel’s new CEO, Pat Gelsinger ’83.

Since taking the reins as Intel’s CEO in February, Pat Gelsinger ’83 has, among other things, met with Pope Francis, delivered a virtual commencement speech to the worldwide Class of 2021, and pledged $3.5 billion to upgrade Intel’s factory in New Mexico to revitalize American chip manufacturing. Meanwhile, on his upbeat @PGelsinger Twitter feed, he is proudly dedicated to Intel’s commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, disability accessibility issues, and the importance of work-life balance. It’s a triumphant return to the place where Gelsinger cut his teeth for 30 years and earned the first of eight patents. As CEO of VMware before his Intel homecoming, Glassdoor named him best boss in America in 2019. Is it any wonder?
