Deere Adds New Director

Deere & Company

Deere and Company has added a new member to its board of directors. Brian Krzanich is the chief executive officer of Intel Corporation.

Krzanich began his career at Intel in 1982 as a process engineer, held senior leadership jobs in manufacturing, and eventually became chief operating officer - and leader of more than 50,000 employees.

He was promoted to ceo of the company, and elected to the board, in 2013.
 

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
