Didn’t he start Azure? Like the reason MS have so much money still.

At making shareholder value he seems pretty good at that and that’s all that matters.

    Not correct either. Maybe my wording was poor, several people were there at the start of Azure.

    Nadella is the reason it’s the second largest cloud provider next to AWS.

    But he didn't "start" it, at least not according to Wikipedia

    No. But as I said my wording was poor. I should have said Nadella made Azure the player it is today and thus how rich Microsoft are.

    That’s not nothing And it shows he makes money for shareholders. Why wouldn’t you want this guy as CEO if that’s your aim.
