New CEO Pat Gelsinger must channel Andy Grove and recreate Intel SHARE Much of the discussion around Intel Corp.’s current challenges understandably is focused on manufacturing issues and its ongoing market share skirmish with Advanced Micro Devices Inc. But the core issue the chipmaking giant faces is it has lost the volume game, forever. When it comes to silicon, volume is king. As such, incoming Chief Executive Pat Gelsinger faces some difficult decisions. On the one hand, he could take some logical steps to shore up the company’s execution, outsource a portion of its manufacturing and make incremental changes that would please Wall Street and probably drive shareholder value when combined with the usual stock buybacks and dividends.
