- President of the Server & Tools
- Senior Vice President of Research and Development for the Online Services Division
- Vice President of the Microsoft Business Division
- Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Business Solutions and Search & Advertising Platform Group
“Our industry does not respect tradition – it only respects innovation,” says Nadella. “The opportunity ahead for Microsoft is vast, but to seize it, we must move faster, focus and continue to transform. I see a big part of my job as accelerating our ability to bring innovative products to our customers more quickly.”
With Nadella as CEO, there are changes at the company:
- Bill Gates will no longer be a chairman, but becomes a tech adviser. John Thompson will take Gates’ position as chairman.
- Focus on mobile: the company’s strategy will take place in a “mobile and cloud-first world.”
