MICROSOFT CEO SATYA NADELLA ABOUT HIS FAMILY AND HIS DAYS IN HYDERABAD
I am still connected deeply to Hyderabad. Both my wife and I went to Hyderabad Public School (HPS). Our parents live in Hyderabad and we visit them every year.
Perhaps more than anything, I think playing cricket for HPS taught me more about working in teams and leadership that has stayed with me throughout my career. There was this one particular incident in a match where my school captain noticed I was bowling some really ordinary stuff. He took over the next over himself, got our team the much-needed breakthrough and then threw the ball back to me in the next over! I will never forget that. What made him do that? Is this what they call leadership? These are the kind of questions I have since reflected on as I approach many of the things I do today leading teams.
Satya Nadella worked with Sun Microsystems as a member of the technology staff. He joined Microsoft in 1992.
Satya Nadella worked as the senior vice president of R&D for the Online Services Division and vice president of the Microsoft Business Division. Later, he was made the president of Microsoft’s $19 billion Server and Tools Business and led a transformation of the company's business and technology culture from client services to cloud infrastructure and services. He has been credited for bringing Microsoft's database, Windows server and developer tools to its Azure cloud. The revenue from Cloud Services grew to $20.3 billion in June 2013 from $16.6 billion when he took over in 2011.
