One of the reasons why I like working out Intel (I'm a contractor), is the fact that they are a smart, forward thinking company.
I like the fact that in this video Deborah goes into the social science aspect of technology adoption; understanding the psychological and anthropological aspects of other cultures and the technology uses for people from an individual and cultural standpoint, is very important. Knowing your audience is the best way to tailor your message so you can communicate as clearly as possible.
I have found that women at Intel are valued as much as other gender(s); it's all about working hard, being innovative and creative, and by doing your part bringing value to the company.

Great insight here. I esp like the 'why why why' concept and the why Intel truly accepts questions like this as means to do better/smarter things within.
