According to March 5 press reports, IBM and its former Chief Diversity Officer, Lindsay-Rae McIntyre, have agreed to a settlement of their dispute. As I reported last week, IBM sued Ms. McIntyre, who had resigned from IBM to go to work for Microsoft, for allegedly violating her non-compete and misappropriating IBM's trade secrets and confidential information.
