Dave Sanchez is a Intel Chief of Staff/Operations Director at Intel Corporation. Colleagues describe him as "Over the 2 years I partnered with Dave, and almost 5 more years I worked with him on a daily basis, I learned a tremendous amount about the value of direct communication and driven effort. In our time as a management team, I witnessed Dave engage in multiple difficult personnel engagements and exit with stronger relationships and a healthier team over all. He accomplished this through direct, genuine and fair communication and assessment. This command trait emerged in Incident Command, one on one and in team environments, and Intel benefitted from it daily. Dave carefully planned strategies, recognizing the value of a long term vision - but when committed to the plan, he executed immediatly and effectively. I continue to admire his ability to execute tangible results. I only have to look at his Purified Water to Go franchise to appreciate his ability to execute a phenomenal plan. I value the time I worked with Dave and try to emulate his skill at getting to the heart of the matter. He is a strong leader with a great vision of what can be, and a greated ability in turing it into action." and "Dave is capable of driving change within an organization by focusing his energy on the stakeholders at the grassroots level--those who must implement and execute the the change desired. He is able to relate at all levels of an organization through experience and direct partnership. If he hasn't held the position he seeks to influence, he will partner to understand those issues that may present a roadblock to achieving success. Finally, Dave possesses technical aptitude and is quick to develop new skills and knowledge. I have seen his thirst for knowledge translate into formal educational achievements, professional advancement, and successful business ventures."
