For All the Chips: Intel’s Rise to the Top
After signing a research contract with Sherman Fairchild’s Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corporation, the eight former employees of Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory launched Fairchild Semiconductor.

Moving Up In Life
It has been accurately stated that when you hire somebody smarter than yourself, you prove you are smarter than they are. We can apply that to all areas of ability. The sales manager should strive diligently to hire sales people who are better at selling than he or she is. That way they can share information and they will both be even more effective. Also, by continuing to learn from each sales person, the manager will stay one step ahead of all of them. Exactly the same thing applies in coaching. A good head coach seeks assistant coaches who know more about their specialty than he does and he learns from them. Ditto for managers in manufacturing, engineering, architecture, etc.

The Accidental Manager: In some train wrecks you may be the train!
Many management promotions are one dimensional, prompted by seniority, non management performance or a recommendation. This is problematic, because great engineers don’t always make a great engineering manager; leading is a very different skill set. When people are placed in management positions haphazardly, it can create a collision between reality and ego. The result is a wreck of denial, manifesting as toxic behaviors: micro-managing, controlling, passive aggressiveness, chaos, bullying, poor judgments and constantly deflecting issues to Human Resources to avoid responsibility.

THE BEST WAY TO LEAD : PURSUE YOUR PASSION
"I was just pursuing what I enjoyed doing. I mean, I was pursuing my passion," says Omidyar. "It is not really work if you are having fun...that was the case with me." From the time he was a young boy, Omidyar knew that his future lied in computers. He didn't know in what capacity, but when other boys were out playing baseball, Omidyar was busy teaching himself Basic. To have denied himself a career in what was obviously his passion would have been to deny himself the success of eBay. "I always wanted to be involved with computers," recalls Omidyar. His original career choice was computer engineering, but enrollment in Tufts quickly changed that decision. He had been accepted into a rigorous electrical engineering and computer engineering program, but by his own admission, it proved a little too rigorous for Omidyar.
