A tribute to Andrew Grove
Andrew (Andy) Grove died on March 21, 2016, aged 79. He leaves behind his wife, 2 daughters and 8 grandchildren. But he also leaves behind an incredible footprint and legacy.
Intel’s first hire
Born in Europe, he survived Nazi occupation and escaped Communist controlled Hungary at age 20. He moved to the United States where he finished his education. Later he joined Fairchild Semiconductor where he worked together with Gordon Moore (of Moore’s law). Moore left Fairchild Semiconductor in 1968 to found Intel. Grove was the first hire and subsequently became Intel’s president in 1979 and CEO in 1987. He played a critical role in Intel’s shift from memory chips to microprocessors.
Intel paid tribute to Grove in a press release: “Grove led the firm’s transformation into a widely recognized consumer brand. Under his leadership Intel produced the chips, including the 386 and Pentium, that helped usher the PC era.”
During Grove’s tenure, Intel increased annual revenues from $1.9 billion to more than $26 billion and its market value increased by 4,500 percent! But Grove was more than a business pioneer.
A thought leader in leadership
Grove was a visionary, he contributed and shaped the future of leadership and management.

Causal Analysis: How Intel’s Board Picked the Wrong CEO, a Huge Process Problem
One of the reasons I think we’ve had so many CEOs fail in office is because, when one fails, we don’t spend a lot of time on why they were selected in the first place. This kind of analysis, looking at the cause of a mistake, is causal analysis (I think a lot of executives should have to write a causal analysis essay). It forces you to think about the stream of events that resulted in a success or failure in order to better understand it. We do a lot of this kind of analysis to understand product failures and crashes, but we don’t seem to do it when it comes to a failed job candidate. This seems a shame because, often, the reasons an employee fails are not directly related to the employee but to the manager or support structure in the company (a lack of onboarding with CEOs is a common cause of failure) and thus replacing the employee just shifts the problem and doesn’t eliminate it. Or, put differently, if you have a manufacturing line producing defective parts, throwing away the parts just reduces visibility for the problem, it doesn’t solve it. You need to fix the process to stop the production of defective parts.
Intel’s first three CEOs were all successes (each had a full term of aroun
