[Just before the meeting got started, Andy Grove, the gruff chairman of Intel's board at the time, pulled Pottruck aside.] 'When you got promoted to CEO,'.. 'did that make you a better man?' I said no. He said, 'Well then, do you think the fact that you're no longer CEO of Schwab means you're not a better man?' I said, 'No, I don't think so.' He said, 'You're as good a man as you were last week. Hold your head high.' It helped me a lot.
