Analyzing the Organizational Behaviors Model of Intel (M) Corporation

According to CEO Brian Krzanich, Intel is known for its corporate culture of meritocracy, which considers employee ability and output. This culture differentiates Intel from competitors, maintains a high-end brand, and influences customers and suppliers to adopt technological efficiency in their mindsets. The following are the main characteristics of Intel’s organizational culture: customer orientation, risk taking, discipline, great place to work, quality, results orientation.

Intel is a multinational technology company with its Malaysia main headquarter located in Penang. Intel is one of the established companies producing and manufacturing high valued semiconductor chips apart from making motherboard chipsets, network interface controllers and integrated circuits, flash memory, graphics chips, embedded processors and other devices related to communications and computing. Founded in 1972, Intel in Malaysia has initially accumulated 100 employees as its workforce and today, it has appeared to be the largest and most diverse site outside of the United States with an employee base of around 8000 highly skilled Malaysians.

Intel develops advanced integrated digital technology products, primarily integrated circuits, for industries such as computing and communications. Intel also develops a n integrated suites of digital computing technology platforms, that are designed to work together to provide user a solution compared to components that are used separately. Intel designs and manufactures computing and communications components, such as microprocessors, chipsets, motherboards, and wireless and wired connectivity products, as well as platforms that incorporate these components. The Company sells its products primarily to original equipment manufacturers, original design manufacturers, PC and network communications products users, and other manufacturers of industrial and communications equipment.

Intel was founded in 1968 by Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce. Both men had impressive backgrounds – Noyce, a physicist, was the co-inventor of the silicon integrated circuit, and Moore was the head of R&D at Fairchild Semiconductor. They recruited other Fairchild workers, including businessman Andrew Grove. The company was originally named ‘Moore Noyce’, but the founders decided that it sounded too much like ‘more noise’, a bad feature for electronics to have. They then settled on ‘Intel’, a combination of the first letters of each word in the term ‘Integrated Electronics’. Intel’s third employee, a chemical engineer named Andy Grove, also came from Fairchild Semiconductor. With Grove on board, Intel released its first product in 1969, the 3101 64-bit Schottky bipolar RAM, and launched denser MOS SRAM & DRAM soon after. Grove was the Intel’s president in 1979, CEO in 1987, Chairman and CEO in 1997, he is credited with transforming Intel from a manufacturer of memory chips into one of the world’s dominant producers of microprocessors. During his tenure as CEO, Grove oversaw a 4,500% increase in Intel’s market capitalization from $18 billion to $197 billion, making it, at the time, the world’s most valuable company.

To maintain itself as a leading company in technology, Intel has set its mission and vision. Intel’s mission is to utilize the power of Moore’s Law to bring smart, connected devices to every person on Earth. Meanwhile, Intel’s vision is “If it is smart and connected, it is best with Intel”. This defines that Intel is irrefutably concerned on building the best sophisticated application and devices in order to connect all people worldwide. With wise and meticulous strategies and plans, Intel believes it can ultimately achieve its goals as long as it receives unceasing efforts from its workforce.

Background

In every organization, manager plays the most crucial roles and responsibility in leading the direction of an organization. Each manager required help and assistance from employees to ensure that they can accomplish all the goals of organization. The failure of manager causes organizational problems. Therefore, leadership can be defined as the use of power and influence to direct the activities of followers toward goal accomplishment. In brief, the manager is someone with the highest ability in influencing oneself to fulfil his or her wants and needs. Throughout his or her characteristics, the organization will be able to reach its mission and vision.

To identify the characteristics of manager in Intel (M) Corporation, we firstly recognize some types of power used by the manager. This step is formulated to ease us in further knowing the leadership style practiced by the manager. Generally, there are two types of power presented by the manager in the organization namely organizational and personal power. The organizational power is established between legitimate, reward and coercive power, whereas the personal power imbued with expert and referent power.

Intel (M) Corporation manager is preferably using both legitimate and referent power. Legitimate power is based upon perception and reality. It is based on the reality that a person holds a particular position in an organization and based on the perception of employees that someone holding that position has authority to exert control over them. However, the power of a person is subject to the job structured hierarchy in the company. Broadly speaking, Intel employees agree that their manager tends to use the legitimate power peculiarly in determining the activities, policies, programmes and rules of the company. In fact, their manager uses this power to allocate resources needs in the company.

Also, the manager of Intel (M) Corporation seems to use the referent power towards employees. This kind of power provides ample opportunity to the manager to cultivate the respect and admiration of followers in such a way that they wish to be like him or her. Referent power is leading by example so in Intel (M) Corporation, this power is based upon a leader modelling his behavior to demonstrate appropriate conduct and decision-making. Intel (M) Corporation employees observe a manager’s behavior and act as they believe their managers would act in the same situation. The referent power is slightly influencing the rapport between the Intel (M) Corporation manager and employees so that the employees will see their manager as a charismatic character to be emulated.

The leadership is one part which cues to the characteristics depicted by the manager in the company. In Intel (M) Corporation, the company believes no one style of leadership fits all situations. Pertaining to that, it is useful to understand different leadership frameworks and styles hence the managers can adapt those different approaches to fit the situation they are in. In business, the transformational leadership is frequently claimed to be the best leadership style to use, but in Intel (M) Corporation, the manager tries to practice equally among the transformational, transactional, bureaucratic and charismatic leadership. Manager in Intel (M) Corporation performs transformational leadership to inspire employees with high integrity and high emotional intelligence. On top of that, for each department in Intel (M) Corporation, the manager tends to motivate their employees with a shared vision of the future and to do so, they use well communication. With this kind of leadership, Intel (M) Corporation manager is said to be self-aware, authentic, empathetic and humble.

For some specific purposes, especially in the department of Order Fulfilment and Supply Chain, the Intel (M) Corporation manager uses bureaucratic leadership. This means that the manager rigorously follows Intel (M) Corporation rules and ensures the employees obey the procedures precisely. Plus, this leadership is also useful for managing employees who perform the routine tasks. Charismatic leadership resembles transformational leadership as both types of manager inspire and motivate their team members. So, the same leadership may apply in certain Intel (M) Corporation activities but the charismatic leadership is more focusing on the ambition of managers without having a change.

Lastly, the manager of Intel (M) Corporation pays the employees for investing their efforts and time in completing some short-term tasks. This refers to the transactional leadership. When the performance among employees does not meet an appropriate standard, the Intel (M) Corporation manager has rights to punish them. This yields very good results as the Intel (M) Corporation employees can often do a little to improve their job satisfaction. In short, the manager in Intel (M) Corporation portrays him or herself to be the most influential person in the company. With different characteristics in different situations, the Intel (M) Corporation manager is eager to achieve the organizational objectives and ultimately accomplish the mission and vision of the company. The utilization of power and leadership as mentioned above shows that the Intel (M) Corporation manager is energetic, ambitious, stringent and enthusiastic. These characteristics help Intel (M) Corporation to produce devoted workforce that will be readily prepared to encounter upcoming challenges and unpredictable circumstances within or outside the company.

Employee’s Job Satisfaction

Compensation or salary is in the first factor that affects Intel (M) Corporation employee’s job satisfaction. Compensation can be defined as the monetary benefit given to the employees by the company for their services given to the company. Voydanoff (1980) have revealed that monetary compensation is one of the most major vivid variables for job satisfaction. Coming to the relation between job satisfaction and salary/compensation, it is found by previous researcher said that “Salary was found to be the key aspect for the drive and job satisfaction of salaried 10 employees of the automobile industry”. The survey assessed the various characteristics of job and the way the employees ranked them as motivators and satisfiers. The results revealed that increasing salary for performance was ranked as the number one job element for motivation and compensation was ranked as the number one job element for job satisfaction.

Supervisor support in Intel (M) Corporation organization plays a crucial factor towards job satisfaction as well as employee retention. Supervisor support is defined as the extent to which leaders care about their employees’ welfare and value their contributions. A leader with high supervisor support is one that makes employees feel appreciated, heard and cared about. Researchers like Buckingham & Coffman (1999) have found that the talented employee may join an organisation for many reason, but how long that employee stays and how productive he/she is while there is determined by the relationship with the immediate supervisor. It was exposed that management & friendly staff relationships contribute to the level of job satisfaction. The results showed that the leadership styles that involve human interaction and encourage participative decision-making are related positively to the skills and essential information gaining.

In Intel (M) Corporation, good work-life balance is ranked in the third place. A healthy work environment lies on three aspects: the ethics and value foundation upon which the organisation rests; the policies that take those principles and convert them into day to day actions and the corporeal environment in which people work. So, all three together attracts employees to work for a longer time in an organisation. Arnold & Feldman (1996), promoted some factors such as temperature, lighting, ventilation, hygiene, noise, working hours, and resources as part of working conditions. The worker would rather desire working conditions that will result in greater physical comfort and convenience. This is because of poor working conditions, many employees feel dissatisfied. The working conditions include office space, equipment, comfortable chairs, air conditioning, tools etc. When working environment is good for an employee, then his/her productivity level automatically goes up. Positive and good work life balance is directly related to employee retention and employees feel they are heard and valued. Intel has ranked top 50 in the world for work-life effectiveness.

The fourth factor is job security in Intel (M) Corporation. Job security is the chance that a person or an employee will keep his or her job; a person with the job would have a little possibility of becoming unemployed if his/her job has an elevated level of job security. Rosenblatt and Ruvio (1996) found in his popular literature that job security tends to perform better with an employee who is satisfied with his job than the one who is not satisfied with the job. This finding is also supported by researchers like Denton (2005) said that if the employees are satisfied and content with the job security they will automatically be devoted to and reliable to their organizations.

Lastly, recognition in Intel has a least impact towards job satisfaction in which it is ranked at the 10th place. The availability of rewards and pay raises in the current climate is having an impact here. Nonetheless they both remain powerful tools for motivation.

Conclusion and Recommendation

Back to all the models that we discovered in this report, it shows that the employees in Intel (M) Corporation are committed to work with the organization and that’s related to their high job and task performances. The opportunities for advancement in Intel (M) Corporation has made the employees more satisfied with their current job when they see a path available to move up the ranks in the company and be given more responsibility and along with it higher compensation. Many companies encourage employees to acquire more advanced skills that will lead to the chance of promotion. Companies often pay the cost of tuition for employees taking university courses, for example, during an employee’s annual performance review, Intel (M) Corporation supervisor should map out a path showing her what she needs to accomplish and what new skills she needs to develop in order to be on a track to advancement within the organization.

Although the workload and stress level is high among employees in Intel (M) Corporation. Dealing with a workload that is far too heavy and deadlines that are impossible to reach can cause job satisfaction to erode for even the most dedicated employee. Falling short of deadlines results in conflict between employees and supervisors and raises the stress level of the workplace. Therefore, the supervisors play the role to elite all the stressors existed in the work environment and this will indirectly be creating a warm environment for the employees to work.

Undeniably, financial rewards are a part which can affect Intel (M) Corporation employee’s job satisfaction. Job satisfaction is impacted by an employee’s views about the fairness of Intel (M) Corporation wage scale as well as the current compensation receiving. Intel (M) Corporation need to have a mechanism in place to evaluate employee performance and provide salary increases to top performers. Opportunities to earn special incentives, such as bonuses, extra paid time off or vacations, also bring excitement and higher job satisfaction to the workplace. Intel (M) Corporation values are the identity that uphold by every employee in Intel (M) Corporation. Employees are more satisfied and are less likely to quit when their personal values are consistent with the organization’s values, and when they have positive attitudes about work environment. Values are desired ways of behaving or desired end-states. When an employee’s values collide with organizational values, employee may have interpersonal value conflicts, or the individual organizational value conflicts that may affect job satisfaction, turnover, and potentially performance. Attitudes, on the other hand, are defined as a learned predisposition to respond in a consistently favourable or unfavourable manner with respect to a given object.

Intel Versus AMD: Comparative Analysis

Background

The American company ‘Intel Corporation’ (Intel) derived from ‘integrated electronics’ founded in 1968, is now one of the biggest known computer processing unit (CPU) brands in today’s market. Intel is my chosen favoured product, as it is the more ‘premium’ product in this critical reflection and can achieve greater performance against its competitors. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) the biggest competitor to Intel was shortly founded a year after Intel. A company similar to Intel also specialized in manufacturing semiconductor devices used in computer processing. AMD is the biggest direct competitor to Intel within the CPU market, both companies deliver products that provide the same service and will both satisfy its job as a CPU.

Analysis

Intel products have always been known for their powerful single-core processing power as compared to AMD’s more cost-effective processing units, comprising of more cores in their CPUs. Intel’s micro-environment competitor has greatly impacted their product line, due to their competitive cost-efficient performance. AMD has achieved this by increasing the amount of processing cores within their products at a lower price point than that of Intel products. This has greatly influenced and impacted Intel’s product line. By forcing them to stay competitive through keep up to the growing demands of consumers’ appeal to CPUs with greater amounts of cores.

Competitive advantage

Intel is favoured in this choice because of “marketing mix that is heavily focused on advertising and public relations”. Intel is mostly viewed by the public as the more ‘premium’ and ‘faster’ product when put in a side-to-side comparison between AMD. A recent survey done in the rapidly expanding market of gaming, shows roughly 80% of users are currently using Intel processing chips than the low 20% of AMD chips. Most popular CPU manufacturers on Windows and Linux (Source: Steam)

Intel has also well-developed public relations, this has helped Intel create beneficial relationships between organizations and the public, allowing for credible third-party validation and greater brand awareness. This relationship is mutually beneficial, as specific media organizations may get exclusive information from Intel in turn, also helping their organization to report and publicize exclusive content. Intel also invest much greater amounts into Research & Development (R&D) than AMD, approximately triple the amount AMD does during the entirety of 2018.

This creates a differential competitive advantage because AMD does not have the budget to duplicate the cost or scale of ‘innovative offerings’ provided by Intel. Hence, Intel is the leader in this market which gives Intel First mover advantage allowing them to gain greater profit margins, resulting in a greater competitive advantage.

• Able to leverage its manufacturing capacity
• (This means it can increase production to bring product to market in large volumes. Increasing volume and getting the product onto the market as quickly as possible are important elements in creating and maintaining a competitive advantage.)

Marketing Mix

Product

Although microprocessors are the most well-known product from Intel. They also have other products widely used in the computer industry such as memory chips. Intel has a larger product variety than its competitor AMD. This shows the company’s growth is greater and its larger company size compared to AMD. Intel’s current products are constantly updated, with their latest ninth-generation processors just recently being announced late last year in October. Intel is also slowly expanding its product line as it seeks out new revenue streams and new computing markets to enter, Intel was reported to be joining the ‘discrete graphics market’ set to be releasing its own graphics processing units (GPU) in 2020. This is a good market segment to enter for Intel as GPUs are most relevant to the gaming side of the computer industry. This side of the computer industry has received a steady growth over the past few years this shows the market is expanding in the gaming sector. (CONSUMERS) (NVIDIA AND AMD ARE PREEXISTING IN THIS MARKET)

Place (distribution)

Intel has three main distribution points, at their own shops, computer stores we find locally in our shopping centres, and systems/computers with their products already installed inside.

Official Intel stores

Intel have their own online store on their official website alongside physical store locations across key locations worldwide. This style of direct distribution allows intel to have complete control over their products as it comes directly from the manufacturer to the consumers. This allows intel to maximise profits as they avoid sharing profits with a reseller. Consumers also get their product faster, intel is also able to gather accurate data from consumer buying habits.

Third-party resellers

Intel also sells their products through third-party resellers, this indirect distribution allows Intel to have lower shipping and storage costs compared to direct distribution. This form of distribution also allows Intel to benefit from their third-party reseller’s branding and salesforce.

Authorized seller of embedded products

Intel also sell their products already installed in systems. This type of distribution can be very beneficial for Intel, because Intel may consider an exclusive distribution of harder, high-end products to make sales on. Exclusive distribution may mean, that third-party reseller is the only supplier selling that specific product from Intel. Hence, these high-end products viewed from the reseller can be seen as ‘prestigious’ as they are only receiving that product directly from Intel to sell. This allows Intel to have steady sales on their higher-priced or harder-to-sell products.

Intel has numerous distribution strategies which allow Intel to have great market coverage, this can make it easier for consumers to purchase their products and could allow them to recognise Intel as a large and reliable brand to purchase from.

Promotion

1. Advertising
2. Public relations (journalist, gaining publicity)
3. Direct Marketing

Intel uses numerous promotional strategies to promote their products to consumers. The main goal of promotion is to determine the needs and wants of consumers alongside, influencing them into feeling the need of purchasing their products and tricking the consumers into thinking their product will satisfy their needs.

Advertising

Intel employs advertising as an effective way to promote their products, and ultimately their brand. This helps consumers become more aware of their brand, and feel a degree of fidelity towards Intel. During the 2017, Super Bowl (NFL), Intel was able to advertise their brand through a commercial break starring a very popular athlete Tom Brady. Since the NFL is a widely-watched sport averaging over 100 million views on television. Intel is able to increase its brand awareness from the people in their internal environment. This is what creates the beneficial relationship between the consumers and their brand, especially what may be considered slightly unethical. By creating a false positive connection between their products and a world class athlete promoting their brand, makes it seem like their brand is represented as ‘world class’ or as good as Tom Brady.

For example, the company sponsors special events, such as science fairs for high schools. Such sponsorship supports brand awareness and customer loyalty. These public relations programs are also part of efforts to address corporate social responsibilities (Read: Intel’s Corporate Social Responsibility Strategy & Stakeholders). Moreover, the company promotes its products through direct marketing. The company engages in direct communications with equipment manufacturers and sellers to reach profitable arrangements. This aspect of Intel’s marketing mix indicates considerably equal significance of advertising, public relations, and direct marketing in supporting the company’s promotional objectives.”

Prices and pricing strategies

Intel Corporation uses the premium pricing strategy to maximize its profits. In this strategy, the company’s prices are relatively higher than those of competitors, such as AMD. (Maximises profit margin)

Disadvantage

Difficult to implement new products, and could be risky in a price–sensitive market.

Advantage

Maximises, profit margins, growing revenue despite cheaper products from AMD.

Target marketing strategies

Corporation applies advertising as a way to attract end-users and equipment developers and designers. Considering the variety of products available from the company, the marketing mix also involves a corresponding variety of potential places or venues for distribution. In this way, Intel ensures that target customers and end-users are effectively reached. An effective marketing mix facilitates business resilience and long-term success by supporting competitiveness and efficiency in marketing. In this regard, it is essential that Intel continue to monitor the appropriateness of its marketing mix relative to the conditions of the semiconductor industry and target markets around the world.

Undifferentiated targeting strategy is used by the company as most of its productsand services are standardised and are easily available worldwide.

1. Objectives point of difference
2. Intel’s mission is to ‘Utilize the power of Moore’s Law to bring smart, connected devices to every person on earth’ make it simpler for the consumer, new slogan
3. Insert other people’s opinion as what it is viewed
4. Compared to AMD and what other thinks (low budget)
5. Critique (talk about bad things) from distribution
6. Weakness
7. Opportunities

Analysis of Advertising Campaign of Intel

Intel Inside

Intel has turned out to be one of the world’s most unmistakable PC brands following its long-running Intel Inside battle. The thought for ‘Intel Inside’ left a gathering among Intel and one of the significant PC affiliates, MicroAge.[215]

In the late 1980s, Intel’s piece of the pie was in effect genuinely disintegrated by upstart contenders, for example, Progressed Smaller scale Gadgets (presently AMD), Zilog, and other people who had begun to pitch their more affordable chip to PC makers. This was on the grounds that, by utilizing less expensive processors, makers could make less expensive PCs and addition more piece of the pie in an inexorably value delicate market. In 1989, Intel’s Dennis Carter visited MicroAge’s home office in Tempe, Arizona, to meet with MicroAge’s VP of Showcasing, Ron Mion. MicroAge had turned out to be one of the biggest merchants of Compaq, IBM, HP, and others and along these lines was an essential – albeit aberrant – driver of interest for chip. Intel needed MicroAge to request of its PC providers to support Intel chips. In any case, Mion felt that the commercial center ought to choose which processors they needed. Intel’s counterargument was that it would be too hard to even think about educating PC purchasers on why Intel microchips merited paying more for … furthermore, they were right.[215] Yet Mion felt that the open didn’t generally need to completely comprehend why Intel chips were better, they simply expected to feel they were better. So Mion proposed a market test. Intel would pay for a MicroAge bulletin someplace saying, ‘In case you’re purchasing a PC, ensure it has Intel inside.’ Thusly, MicroAge would put ‘Intel Inside’ stickers on the Intel-based PCs in their stores around there. To make the test simpler to screen, Mion chose to do the test in Rock, Colorado, where it had a solitary store. Essentially medium-term, the offers of PCs in that store drastically moved to Intel-based PCs. Intel in all respects immediately embraced ‘Intel Inside’ as its essential marking and moved it out worldwide.[215]

As is frequently the situation with PC legend, different goodies have been consolidated to clarify how things advanced. ‘Intel Inside’ has not gotten away from that propensity and there are other ‘clarifications’ that had been skimming near.

Intel’s marking effort began with ‘The PC Inside’ slogan in 1990 in the US and Europe. The Japan section of Intel proposed an ‘Intel in it’ slogan and commenced the Japanese battle by facilitating EKI-KON (signifying ‘Station Show’ in Japanese) at the Tokyo railroad station vault on Christmas Day, December 25, 1990. A while later, ‘The PC Inside’ joined the Japanese thought to progress toward becoming ‘Intel Inside’ which in the end raised to the overall marking effort in 1991, by Intel showcasing chief Dennis Carter.[216] The contextual investigation of Within Intel Inside was assembled by Harvard Business School.[217] The five-note jingle was presented in 1994 and by its tenth commemoration was being heard in 130 nations around the globe. The underlying marking office for the ‘Intel Inside’ crusade was DahlinSmithWhite Publicizing of Salt Lake City. The Intel twirl logo was crafted by DahlinSmithWhite workmanship executive Steve Grigg under the heading of Intel president and Chief Andy Woods

The Intel Inside publicizing effort looked for open brand devotion and familiarity with Intel processors in shopper computers.[218] Intel paid a portion of the promoter’s expenses for an advertisement that utilized the Intel Inside logo and xylo-marimba jingle.

2009– 2011 Pentium Inside identification plan

In 2008, Intel wanted to move the accentuation of its Intel Inside crusade from conventional media, for example, TV and print to more up-to-date media, for example, the Internet.[220] Intel necessitated that at least 35% of the cash it gave to the organizations in its center program be utilized for online marketing.[220] The Intel 2010 yearly budgetary report demonstrated that $1.8 billion (6% of the gross edge and about 16% of the all-out overall gain) was distributed to all publicizing with Intel Inside being a piece of that.

Sonic logo

The acclaimed xylophone/xylomarimba jingle, sonic logo, tag, sound memory helper was created by Musikvergnuegen and composed by Walter Werzowa, when an individual from the Austrian 1980s testing band Edelweiss.[222] The sonic Intel logo was revamped in 1999 to correspond with the dispatch of the Pentium III, and a second time in 2004 to match with the new logo change (in spite of the fact that it covered with the 1999 form and was not mainstreamed until the dispatch of the Center processors in 2006), with the tune unaltered. Ads for items highlighting Intel processors with conspicuous MMX marking included a rendition of the jingle with a frivolity after the last note.

Processor naming methodology

In 2006, Intel extended its advancement of open particular stages past Centrino, to incorporate the Viiv media focus PC and the business work area Intel vPro.

In mid-January 2006, Intel declared that they were dropping the long-running Pentium name from their processors. The Pentium name was first used to allude to the P5 center Intel processors and was done to consent to court decisions that keep the trademarking of a series of numbers, so contenders couldn’t simply consider their processor a similar name, as had been finished with the earlier 386 and 486 processors (the two of which had duplicates made by IBM and AMD). They eliminated the Pentium names from portable processors first, when the new Yonah chips, marked Center Solo and Center Couple, were discharged. The work area processors changed when the Center 2 line of processors were discharged. By 2009, Intel was utilizing a decent better-best methodology with Celeron being great, Pentium better, and the Intel Center family speaking to the best the organization needs to offer.[223]

As indicated by representative Bill Calder, Intel has kept up just the Celeron brand, the Molecule brand for netbooks and the vPro lineup for organizations. Since late 2009, Intel’s standard processors have been called Celeron, Pentium, Center i3, Center i5, and Center i7, arranged by execution from most minimal to most noteworthy. The original center items convey a 3 digit name, for example, i5 750, and the second era items convey a 4 digit name, for example, the i5 2500. In the two cases, a K toward its finish demonstrates that it is an opened processor, empowering extra overclocking capacities (for example, 2500K). vPro items will convey the Intel Center i7 vPro processor or the Intel Center i5 vPro processor name.[224] In October 2011, Intel began to sell its Center i7-2700K ‘Sandy Scaffold’ chip to clients worldwide.[225]

• Since 2010, ‘Centrino’ is just being connected to Intel’s WiMAX and Wi-Fi advancements.

Typography

Neo Sans Intel is a redone form of Neo Sans dependent on the Neo Sans and Neo Tech, structured by Sebastian Lester in 2004.[226]

Intel Clear is a worldwide textual style reported in 2014 intended for to be utilized over all interchanges. The textual style family was planned by Red Look Marking and Daltan Maag Ltd. At first accessible in Latin, Greek and Cyrillic contents, it supplanted Neo Sans Intel as the organization’s corporate typeface.[230][231] Intel Clear Hebrew, Intel Clear Arabic were included by Daltan Maag Ltd.[232]

Intel Brand Book

It is a book created by Red Pinnacle Marking as a component of new brand character crusade, observing Intel’s accomplishments while setting the new standard for what Intel looks, feels and seems like. Intel Clear is a worldwide text style declared in 2014 intended for to be utilized over all communications.[227][228] The textual style family was planned by Red Look Marking and Daltan Maag Ltd.[229][229] At first accessible in Latin, Greek and Cyrillic contents, it supplanted Neo Sans Intel as the organization’s corporate typeface.[230][231] Intel Clear Hebrew, Intel Clear Arabic were included by Daltan Maag Ltd.[232]

Open-source support

Intel has a huge cooperation in the open-source networks since 1999. For instance, in 2006 Intel discharged MIT-authorized X.org drivers for their incorporated realistic cards of the i965 group of chipsets. Intel discharged FreeBSD drivers for some systems administration cards,[235] accessible under a BSD-good license,[236] which were additionally ported to OpenBSD.[236] Paired firmware documents for non-remote Ethernet gadgets were likewise discharged under a BSD permit permitting free redistribution.[237] Intel ran the Moblin project until April 23, 2009, when they gave the task over to the Linux Establishment. Intel likewise runs the LessWatts.org campaigns.[238]

Nonetheless, after the arrival of the remote items called Intel Expert/Remote 2100, 2200BG/2225BG/2915ABG, and 3945ABG in 2005, Intel was censured for not conceding free redistribution rights for the firmware that must be incorporated into the working framework for the remote gadgets to operate.[239] therefore, Intel turned into an objective of battles to enable free working frameworks to incorporate double firmware on terms worthy to the open-source network. Linspire-Linux maker Michael Robertson sketched out the troublesome position that Intel was in discharging to open source, as Intel did not have any desire to disturb their substantial client Microsoft.[240] Theo de Raadt of OpenBSD likewise guaranteed that Intel is being ‘an Open Source extortion’ after an Intel worker exhibited a contorted perspective on the circumstance at an open-source conference.[241] regardless of the critical negative consideration, Intel got because of the remote dealings, the parallel firmware still has not picked up a permit perfect with free programming standards. In any case, after the arrival of the remote items called Intel Master/Remote 2100, 2200BG/2225BG/2915ABG, and 3945ABG in 2005, Intel was scrutinized for not conceding free redistribution rights for the firmware that must be incorporated into the working framework for the remote gadgets to operate.[239] therefore, Intel turned into an objective of crusades to enable free working frameworks to incorporate double firmware on terms worthy to the open-source network.

Intel Corporation Supply Chain Analysis

Introduction:

Intel Corporation was founded in 1968 and is now the biggest semiconductor chip manufacturer over the world. It now has more than 600 facilities within 107.4 thousand employees worldwide (Intel, 2016). The main businesses Intel providing are key components for computer production all over the world, including processors, chipsets, boards, systems and software, and so on. Nowadays, with the development of the internet and computer industry, the competition of hardware manufacturers becomes extremely fierce while Intel can still be the world’s leader of semiconductor chip manufacturer and designer. According to the 2017 top 25 supply chain announced by Gartner, Intel ranks top 6 among the list. Two main characteristics of the Supply Chain Top 25 ranking are the demonstration of demand-driven leadership and corporate social responsibility (Intel IT, 2017). There is no doubt that its successful supply chain mode helps Intel stays at the top of the hardware manufacturing area.

Structures of Supply Chain:

The process of Intel corporation’s semiconductor supply network can be divided into several different layers which are monitored by the same organization. There are more than 17,000 suppliers in more than 100 countries contribute to the supply chain. They provide equipment, accessories, raw materials, logistics transportation and various non-production materials and travel services for Intel (Intel, 2018). The first layer of the supply chain is mining and producing the bare silicon wafers and this part comprises of hundreds of separate steps. This layer will take 10 weeks averagely because the wafers need to be divided into different integrated circuits. The circuits will be sent to an E-test once they are manufactured and they will be sorted according to whether the functions of integrated circuits are intended (Jeffery, 2005). It will take another average of 10 weeks from E-test to delivery and totally 20 weeks for the whole supply chain, but Intel’s forecasting and management make more than 50% orders be met within 4 weeks by using efficient strategies and management approaches.

Strategies of Supply Chain:

The main object of Intel’s management strategy is to actively manage their supply chain to make business value for both Intel Corporation and its customers. Their successful management approach helps them reduce risks and improve the quality of the product. Intel also focuses on achieving environmental and social goals and raising the overall performance of suppliers. In 2017, 86% of suppliers participating in their CSR leadership program and met all of the requirements, a significant increase from 57% in 2013 when the program started. Again, 100% of first-tier suppliers have responded to the CDP supply chain survey in 2017 (Intel, 2018).

High Standards for Internal and External Environment

Intel creates accountability to satisfy or exceed the same standards that they set for suppliers and audit themselves to the same standards. Intel provides the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition Code of Conduct (EICC Code) for both suppliers and themselves that requiring to satisfy the standards about environmental, social and ethical issues under the electronics industry (Intel, 2016). In addition, Intel uses the EICC Validated Assessment Process (VAP) tool to audit their own performance. In 2017, their assembly and test facility in Kulim, Malaysia was audited, and got overall score was 197 out of 200 finally. Again, Chengdu, China facility was audited in 2016 received a perfect score following a closure audit in 2017 (Intel, 2018).

In order to ensure that suppliers are accountable, Intel uses various of tools and processes to manage suppliers’ performance such as the Program to Accelerate Supplier Sustainability (PASS), Supplier Report Card (SRC), Assessments, and Audits, and Targeted Action Plans. PASS helps suppliers to create internal ability around corporate responsibility by strict commitments about obedience, transparency, and ability-building. The amount of participating suppliers has reached more than 300 in 2017 from 100 in 2013, and 86% of participants satisfied all PASS requirements at the end of 2017 (Intel, 2018). Assessments and Audits offer more than 300 environmental, safety, and human rights issues that Intel can better analyze the risk profile of suppliers. From 2013 to 2017, their suppliers experienced over 450 Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) VAP and Intel RBA-based target audits. And Intel aims to audit 100% of high-risk supplier sites in two years (Intel, 2018).

Skills and Capabilities Founding

Intel offers training, infrastructure and tools for suppliers to meet comprehensive, sustainable improvements. For example, Online Resource, it is accessible for all suppliers to enter Intel’s complimentary interactive Supplier Sustainability Resource Center. This centre covers more than 20 critical topics’ information such as management systems, working hours, social insurance in China, lean manufacturing and so on (Intel, 2016). The feature of user feedback is direct, two-way dialogue via the platform which brings new perceptions about critical sustainability topics. Again, Intel launched a face-to-face workshops program in 2014, they worked with the supply chain sustainability consultant, ELEVATE, to support suppliers to address work-hours management. Besides that, Intel has direct engagement with suppliers in order to increase suppliers’ performance and achieve higher efficiency. In 2016, Intel and Dell co-hosted an executive round table in Taiwan to cooperate in innovative approaches that speed up supplier progress on sustainability performance (Intel, 2016). In 2017, Intel provided custom training plans for select suppliers to reinforce their management’s insights and eliminate any compliance gaps (Intel, 2018).

Industry Collaboration

Collaboration is key to solving broad, long-standing matters. Intel as one of the founders of the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) actively collaborate with supply chain-related organisations including RBA, Semiconductor Industry Association and SEMI, they assist to establish electronics industry standards, improve auditing processes, conduct training, ensure membership compliance and so on. Also, Intel co-founded the multi-industry, multi-stakeholder Responsible Labor Initiative (RLI), which is responsible for protecting and promoting the rights of vulnerable workers (Intel, 2018). They declare that they will try their best to minimise or eliminate the likelihood of vulnerable workers being in forced and bonded labour circumstances.

Supplier Diversity

Intel believes that cooperating with a variety of supply chain can take more innovation, more opportunities and greater value to their business. Intel diversity not only towards employing and retention, but also contains diversifying venture portfolio, strengthening the technical channel and spending with diverse suppliers. While Intel has been committed to supplier diversity for many years, in 2015 Intel greatly strengthened that commitment with a new objective to expand spending with various suppliers to $1 billion by 2020 (Intel, 2016).

Issues of Supply Chain & Solutions:

Although everything seems going on well with Intel’s reasonable management, there are still some issues needing to be dealt with. For instance, the total time for Intel supply chain is averagely 20 weeks (which is actually quite long) and moreover, more than 50% of their orders are met in 4 weeks while the semiconductor components only have a life cycle of 1.5 years. So, the demand for semiconductor components is very unstable. The drops of demand for components may make a large amount of inventory which is at the end of product life left in companies’ warehouse. On the contrary, the rises of demand may result in stocking out and bring lost revenue. The main problem here (Actually for the whole microprocessor) is that the life cycle is just 1.5 years. Although reducing inventory may be a strategy, the problem is that the stockout cost is too high compared to the inventory cost (Jeffery, 2005).

So how to deal with the problem of the unstable demand of the semiconductor components for Intel? Mariah Jeffery determined to develop “a method for determining and controlling inventory levels” (Jeffery, 2005) and she found that no policy can achieve a win-win stage between minimizing cost and minimizing variability. Jeffery showed that updating the inventory projection models more frequently (than monthly rate) does not benefit the moderately variable products and so that tighter control should be executed for highly variable products. This author concluded for Intel corporation that they need to make a choice between the desire to minimise variability compared to the cost and the amount that could be invested in forecasting.

In addition, Intel as a world leader in the design and manufacturing of essential products and technologies that fulfils over 1 million orders a year from several factories and 30 warehouses. Intel needs to deal with more than a terabyte of supply chain and manufacturing data every day. With the development of business, supply chain efficiency and agility become very important for the corporate’s continuous success. Decreasing supply chain cost is always a crucial point for large companies. But it is equally significant to ongoing innovate, while synchronously keeping supply chain stability. Until just a few years ago, Intel’s legacy supply chain structure did not support business agility and innovation (Intel IT, 2017). The growing business environment with cumulative cost pressure and new E-commercial models made a traditional method to supply chain management cumbersome. Ageing data warehouse and batch-driven processes have resulted in multiple data hops, data latencies of up to 12 hours, data fragmentation, data reconciliation and quality issues (Intel IT, 2017).

In order to solve these issues, Intel determined to re-architect the supply chain that enhances decision-making capabilities. Also, Intel determined to install an in-memory database and advanced analytics with SAP HANA technology. SAP HANA provides real-time data management which means data can be analysed within seconds of it being saved or created, no need to wait hours for a report or to perform analysis (Intel It, 2017). Intel creates an integrated data platform (IDP) to integrate the SAP HANA system with its Cloudera Distribution of Hadoop cluster. Thus, the combination of SAP HANA’s in-memory capabilities and Hadoop’s big data capabilities provides a real-time “sense-and-respond” supply chain. This kind of supply chain data transformation strategy satisfies the principles of end-to-end visibility, responsiveness and simplification. These capabilities play a crucial role in creating business value by maximised margins, faster product achievement, decreased operating costs, decreased inventory days, and increased superior operation (Intel IT, 2017).

Conclusion:

In summary, Intel as a leader in the microprocessor industry should continue to set high requirements for both internal and external standards. They need to make efforts on suppliers’ skills and capabilities building and actively work in industry collaboration. Under the supply chain responsibility, Intel is expected to protect and promote the rights of vulnerable workers in the electronics industry, they need to use their influence to reduce forced and bonded labour in the world. Again, Intel should provide ongoing investment in diversity development and aim for 2020 goal of $1 billion annual spendings with diverse suppliers.

Mentoring Programs in Intel: Analytical Essay

The Mentoring Program is designed to provide information to new employees with the opportunity to improve their knowledge, skills, capabilities, and experience to enhance their careers and professional development. Mentoring programs see experienced staff in a company giving direction and individual bolster to less experienced group individuals. They can be colossally useful to trade in several ways. Regularly, the mentor/mentee relationship could be a one-on-one course of action, where the mentee is guided through aptitudes and career advancement, as well as proficient development in delicate abilities. They too bring a well-organized exchange of abilities (in both bearings) between the coach and mentee, for the advantage of the company. (Why you should start a mentoring program at work | Roubler Australia Blog 2018)

Intel Corporation

Intel Corporation is an American multinational corporation and technology company headquartered in Santa Clara, California, in Silicon Valley. It is the world’s largest and highest valued semiconductor chip manufacturer based on revenue,[4][5] and is the inventor of the x86 series of microprocessors, the processors found in most personal computers (PCs). Intel ranked No. 46 in the 2018 Fortune 500 list of the largest United States corporations by total revenue. (Wikipedia Contributors, 2019)

Introduction

Intel company is used mentoring programs for a long time. The play at least rule to apply for the fast-track the sale but the real gift to the intel that the whole company run the by the mentoring programs and they get success in their field of technology. The master of the mentoring program uses both ways to interact with employees, formal and informal way and have a strong network of people. Intel’s way of mentoring — and it has nearly nothing in common with conventional, corporate mentoring programs. Intel’s way is more majority rule,

more orderly, and quicker-paced. Most imperative, it has nothing to do with a person’s career advancement. Intel’s form matches individuals not by work title or by a long time of benefit but by aptitudes that are in request. “This is certainly not an uncommon program for uncommon individuals. Nor is the company’s mentoring-with-a-difference approach all around confront time and one-on-one counseling. Instep, Intel’s program employments an intranet and mail to perform the matchmaking, making connections that extend over state lines and national boundaries. That empowers Intel to spread its best hones rapidly all through the far-flung organization. At long last, Intel employments composed contracts and tight due dates to form beyond any doubt that its mentoring program gets comes about quickly. (Warner, 2002)

A management structure of intel

Intel Corporation’s organizational structure is based on the nature of the innovation commerce. A firm’s organizational or corporate structure is the composition or course of action of components fundamental to keep a framework of successful and proficient operations. In Intel’s case, the organizational structure is unequivocally based on item sorts. As a driving player within the semiconductor industry, Intel employments the characteristics of its organizational structure to guarantee victory in creating and promoting its different innovative items to target clients around the world. Intel Enterprise features a solid product-type divisional organizational structure. The company’s processors and related items are classified agreeing to their capacities and markets. The corporate structure takes this classification into thought. The taking after is the most characteristic of Intel’s organizational structure and it is involved various components to interact with their employees such as an electronic mode of communication, groups meetings sometimes conduct small enjoy and creative activities to encourage the employees to give their best in the workplace. It is also providing a learning environment to the employees.

Resource Required

This asset is planning to grant mentors over various clusters of programs the aptitudes they ought to construct a faithful connection with mentees. (nationalmentoringresourcecenter.org, n.d.)

There are some basic resources that are needed (mentor) to run the mentoring session are:

1. Space to conduct a session.
2. Communication skills
3. Electronic equipment (computers, projector, etc)
4. Ask questions to build a relationship with the mentee.
5. Clear the all goals of the company as well as proper knowledge.
6. Friendly and peaceful environment.

Mode and how communication will occur between the mentor and mentee

There are various ways and modes to communicate with the mentees most common use is one on one group meeting so all the mentees as their queries and the mentor give the proper guidance to mentee how to do work in the company and also mentor give the information about the company rules, goals as well as safety & employees human resources.

• Mentor gives an overview of the organization.
• Provide the information about policy & rules of the company.
• Explain the way how to approach your seniors if they have any problems like medical illness, discrimination, and so on.
• Transfer techniques and tactics, they use for sale marketing.
• How to communicate and convince the consumer to believe in your product.

Mentor and mentee selection process

This process is done in the first stage of a mentoring program to choose the candidate who can be enrolled in the mentoring programs.

Commentary on induction and how candidates will be matched

In the company like intel, they use the candidate profile to match their mentor. The primary step in Intel’s mentoring program was to form a coordinating framework that killed mystery. The team turned to the representative database in arrange to form an intranet-based survey that may coordinate accomplices with the correct trainer. The framework works by having potential tutors list their beat abilities at Circuit.

Intel’s inside worker location. Accomplices press on subjects that they need experts on, such as authority, Intel culture, or organizing. At that point, the calculation computes all the factors, and the database spits out a list of possible matches.

Once a coordinate is made, a programmed e-mail goes to the guide inquiring her to set up a time for conversation. The guide and the partner learn a few basic but crucial rules at a required course. (Warner 2002)

Mentor and mentee selection criteria, procedures, and tools

There are a number of factors to match the mentor and mentee selection criteria such as (gender, diversity, culture, knowledge, experience, location, interests, tenure, what mentees “need” and what mentors “offer” etc)

• A similar value and belief structure between mentor/mentee.
• The rapid development of trust and support.
• Sufficient self-disclosure.
• A clear business or developmental objective(s) for the relationship.
• Not too big a “gap” in terms of seniority.
• Consideration of experience as being more important than age.
• Not too much similarity, as this will not aid learning.

These aspects develop more quickly with a strong relationship between mentors and mentees. (Merrick 2019)

Support structures

Establishing methods and resources to achieve designated outcomes

The mentor runs a one-to-one informal mentoring session and asks a lot of questions to communicate with the mentee to build trust so the mentee does not feel hesitant to tell or ask to solve any query. Mentor conduct a lot of sessions so they know what kind of problems mentees face they also share experiences with mentees to overcome their problems give them space to do mistakes and learn from them.

Tools to be used

The different task uses different resources and equipment but, in this session, electronic media (PowerPoint slides, images, policies views, feedback, and share story of successful person), as well as face-to-face arrangement meetings, are mostly used. Most of the information is delivered by email and conduct a small meeting in the workplace to do more practices

SWOT Assessment: This stands for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. A mentee can increase their strength and overcome their weakness and get more tasks to perform. The SMART key element of mentor and mentee is to set goals to achieve. (Mentoring Tools | Together Mentoring Software n.d.)

Addressing potential cultural differences or diversity issues in mentor-mentee relationships

The role of the mentor is to act as an informal way to build strong relationships and trust cannot be built between the mentee and mentor without communication to exchange views. Because there is no involvement of the management in informal mentoring so there are no eligibility criteria to do that. If both parties are approved for each other to connect, the mentee follows the advice of the mentor to build mentoring relationship and continuous quality improvement activities.

Action plan

In mentoring, Activity arranging is around setting your goals (the things you would like to attain) and after that making them happen. It is not a passive thing but an Activity plan. You will be got to identify

• What your organization’s goal be specific
• What activities commit to making set a target as well as achievable)
• When they are completed (Timescales) (Action Planning – getting the most out of mentoring n.d.)…

Selection of mentor-mentee profile for the mentoring session.

The mentor profile-In the sale department the mentor is control all activities. who has a lot of experience in their field and has good knowledge to run mentoring programs?

• To provide required skills and knowledge to the new staff about handling the customers with different needs.
• To build confident relationships with the mentees.
• To provide training to the new staff about the new techniques and software.
• Train them to handle customers with different needs.

The mentee profile- For a successful mentoring program, it depends on the mantes to create strong coordination between the mentor

• Mentees should know their responsibilities and actions.
• New staff should be more confident in the workplace.
• They should have a trustworthy relationship.
• Build strong and positive relationship bonds with a mentor.
• They should have basic knowledge about the market.

Inform individuals involved in a mentoring session.

It is very essential to inform the staff about the mentoring program. Mentoring sessions are conducted in the hospital and an email is usually gets sent to the manager. Through email inform, all the new employee of the organization is going to conduct a face-to-face mentoring session for the better performance of the sales department. It commences at 10 am-05.00 pm on 24th July 2020 at the intel office.

During this session, the mentor covers all primary topic of the sales techniques and teach how to communicate and convince the consumer. it also gives training on the new software equipment and other things.

Benefits to the sale.

• They get more information about new technology equipment.
• It gives them more confidence in their job.
• They can enhance their knowledge about the organization and make new network terms.

Train the mentor and mentee

It is especially important to train the mentor on the workplace’s latest policy before they run the mentoring session. Proper selection of mentors and mentees is essential because every mentoring program is not effective for everyone. Some people learn fast some take time to cope with their problems.

Matching Mentors and Mentees

The mentor which usually matches all the criteria with new staff through an induction program. Before the mentoring session, the organizes an induction program for the mentor and the mentee so that they can easily match their profiles for better performance.

Build strong mentoring relationships

During the mentoring program, they build a strong relationship between the new employees and the manager as it is a long-term relationship. The mentor provides knowledge based on their experience with new staff. The mentor and the mentees develop short-and long-term goals through open communication.

Program evaluation, including how data will be collected

There are many ways to evaluate the program one of them is the Kirkpatrick Model which has four steps such as:

Reactions one way to induce Level 1 input is to send out an overview to the tutor and mentees with the questions such as:

1. What was most meaningful in your interest within the mentoring program?
2. On a scale of 1-5, how important has your mentoring experience been for your career?
3. Did you appreciate taking part in the program?

Relying as it were on Level 1 input alone will not for the most part tell you on the off chance that the program could be a victory. Be that as it may, it is vital to understand the encounter of the mentee and coach within the program. There may indeed be a few astonishing benefits to mentoring that the criticism reveals.

Learning

Past the starting responses of the members, Level 2 input looks for to degree how much individuals learn over the course of the mentoring program. In any case, it’s critical to keep in mind that the vital learning that goes on in a mentoring program isn’t continuously specialized, or indeed skill-based. Some of the time, the imperative learning that goes on in a mentoring program is attitudinal.

Behavior

What behavioural changes does the program point to create, and how will those be measured? Be clear on the benefits of mentoring to your organization and the tutor and mentee and permit the measurements to stream from there. Behavior changes are exceptionally vital to mentoring programs that center on administration advancement or other ability development. Ideally, mentees will begin to create behavioral changes all through the program. If they are not, it could be critical to explore why unused learning isn’t being connected.

Results

Within the fourth level of the Kirkpatrick demonstration, the comes about of the program is measured. These come about ought to take after the goals of the mentoring program and are frequently organization-level results. It is imperative to clearly characterize the results of the mentoring program, which can some of the time be challenging. (Sabine n.d.)

A conclusion, including any recommendations based on the planned outcomes and the next steps.

Mentoring may be an exceptionally imperative program that is utilized in a work environment to supply preparing the modern staff so they can develop and learn the work environment rules. It gives them numerous openings to get to each other. The key to set up a effective mentoring relationship incorporates beliefs, clear objectives, parts, and duties. It sets out brief- and long-term objectives, utilizing open and supportive communication, which is exceptionally imperative to progress the quality of the administrations given and to preserve the notoriety of the organization. By utilizing the Kirkpatrick Show, not as it were will Organization have an awesome estimation arrangement that can share with different levels of partners, but to have a result reference report when we are planning our program. It could be a key component that is utilized by all sorts of people and organizations to bring approximately learning and advancement and it is exceptionally simple and sufficient to be take after to meet the prerequisites of nearly any circumstance requiring learning and formative tools. Mentoring Programs can be designed to meet the demands, and needs of individuals, organizations, employees, and communities so organizations achieve their goals for the market.
