Goodbye to Bill Gates on June 27... but it’s not goodbye forever!
Bill Gates retires from Microsoft this friday. A lot has been said about his retirement and I know most people here at Microsoft will miss him. Certainly since I have been here (18 years now) I have seen how his driven this company into one of the most life changing companies in the world.
I have had the pleasure of meeting Bill on several occasions. Its super impressive when he actually remembered my name last time I saw him. He will leave a deep void in our leadership, but I cant imagine he will let go completely. This is his baby and I am sure he will keep an eye out if anything goes wrong. But until then, lets all let him change the world again this time with his amazing philanthropy.
Fortune did a great slide review of Bill’s Microsoft career with the man himself narrating. Check it here
