In a statement, Satya said, "Microsoft is one of those rare companies to have truly revolutionised the world through technology, and I couldn't be more honoured to have been chosen to lead the company."In Satya, Microsoft's directors selected both a company insider and an engineer as their newest chief executive, suggesting that they viewed technical skill and intimacy with Microsoft's sprawling businesses as critical for its next leader.It has often been noted that Microsoft was more successful under the leadership of Gates, a programmer and its first chief executive, than it was under Steve Ballmer, who had a background in sales.

Most recently, the executive vice-president of Microsoft's cloud and enterprise businesses, Satya peppers his conversations and speeches with technical buzzwords that people outside the industry would most likely find impenetrable.Satya, who has been married for 22 years and has three children,Prepare for the party and shop dressestmall's collection of Wholesale Cheap Prom Dresses Online online today! counts cricket and poetry among his hobbies.Satya showed ambition early in his career. He received degrees in engineering and computer science, then earned a master's degree in business administration from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business while working full time at Microsoft.
