Talking Microsoft

Videos from Microsoft UK. People in Microsoft, and people who have something interesting to say about Microsoft.

Interview with Christine Betts.

Christine is a Senior Director of Microsoft - and ultimately responsible for a lot of the programmes I work on. She's a Brit living in Redmond and she came over for Tech-ed IT forum back in November: over dinner she seemed so approachable that I asked if she'd do a video for us. We start by talking about here role as head of Audience Marketing and  the role of evangelists (or what I'm doing here), and get on to mentoring and what it's like doing a job like hers. Even if you're not in IT there are couple of great "life and work" quotes in there.  I said that Gordon Frazer was as pleasant off camera as he was on it, and Christine was the same. Nice people do make it to the top in Microsoft.
