MS Ends CEO Search - Taps Insider


Recommended Posts

...[MS]announced plans on Tuesday to hire 20-year veteran exec Satya Nadella as its new CEO and transition founder Bill Gates to a new role as technology adviser.

Microsoft said Gates will step down as chairman and assume a new role on the board as founder and technology adviser. In this new position, Microsoft said Gates will devote more time to the company and support Nadella in “shaping technology and product direction.”

Gates is being replaced as chairman by John Thompson, who had been lead director on the board and in charge of its CEO search process.

When I think of cricket, which is not very often, I'm reminded of commentator Brian Johnsons' commentary gaff during a Test Match in 1976, he said,

 

'The bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey.'

 

I wonder if Satya Nadella has heard that one and I hope he sacks the fools that came up with MS Sh Flight.
