Former Intel Corp chief executive officer Brian Krzanich used to say his push to make the chipmaker’s workforce less male-dominated was motivated by a desire to build a better technology industry for his daughters to work in someday.
His power to directly expand opportunities for women at Intel ended when he was forced to resign in June over an extramarital workplace relationship. But as Intel’s board looks for his replacement, the company has a chance to kick the effort into a higher gear. The world’s second-largest semiconductor maker is seeking a new leader at a time when there are at least three female candidates whose resumes would likely put them on the list, regardless of their gender.
