There's a lot of garnish in this story, but it's quite tasty. TLDR: earlier Intel CEOs encouraged criticism to make the company better; Krzanich didn't. Ergo, Intel's current failures are Krzanich's fault. https://www.bloomberg.com/...

TIL that former Intel CEO Krzanich used to do his online shopping in meetings to indicate his disdain, which was still probably better for his execs than the times he verbally abused them instead.
