Movies and TV will be next. It wasn't making headway. Every time I see an article like this it just leave me scratching my head how a "tech giant" like Microsoft abandons the largest market on the planet, mobile. Albeit without the use ahem salty language lol. These Experts Are Racing to Protect AI From Hackers. Instead of that they rushed W10 mobile out of door without propper testing and made the whole world to laugh at them DAN HOWLEY: Satya Nadella has been Microsoft's CEO since February, 2014 and chairman of the board since 2021. Plus, Win32 apps are running in emulation. Thus, he was biased for Azure and various cloud initiatives. But at some point Surface will need to flip to the black. According to Herminia Ibarra, Aneeta Rattan, Anna Johnston , there is huge scope of improvement in inventory management. In terms of achieving more successful innovation and bringing further improvement in the organizational growth, the business environment at Microsoft should be reviewed to determine the strengths and weaknesses. They only barely made double digits in a handful of places on cheap phones. At the end of a surprisingly eventful, exciting presentation of Windows 11, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella came on the video feed to deliver some closing remarks. This whole "cloud first or nothing" push will eventually backfire and they will float into abyss. I definitely did not replace my MS software with Google. OEM's wisely took the choice of the free OS over a paid one. yes, it was the best music service out there, now I don't know where to go, all the other service habe a flaw spotify don't allow personal library, google music don't have a PC apps, you have to use a third party apps, and apple music well, it's apple.. They just want a simple product/service which fulfils there dreams. Admitting apparently isn't keeping him from doing over and over again. Nadella needs to find a way to increase tablet sales, a device class that I suspect uses Windows Store apps on a larger per-unit scale than other form factors. No doubt they are winding down Surface. They should have just purchasedParallels and created a Parallels for windows phone that runs ios and android apps and we would not even be having this conversation. We can all appreciate that thirst for knowledge. Do European countries need Americans on their boards? He is the chief executive officer (CEO) of Microsoft, succeeding Steve Ballmer in 2014. hits the nail on the head. By completely ceding this space, Microsoft is in effect abandoning personal computing. Once, they held conferences announcing new operating systems and individuals went to the conference. Falling growth is anathema to such dotage. It is that simple. Does anyone knows the name of the weed he smokes? Again all available in people's pockets. I've never had a any other smart phone but a Microsoft mobile OS. Nadella grew up in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad and studied electrical engineering at Mangalore University (B.Sc., 1988). And my guess is that these items are all high on Nadellas to-do list. So no, it had nothing useful at a time when both Android and IOS were already much better. What's the issue and im genuinely asking? SWOT Analysis stands for - Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats that Nadella Satya encounters both internally and in macro environment that it operates in. I like that idea. Windows Phone just worked, but with each release they took away more and more features and broke other ones. I know there were major issues, but these little things improve daily life of the end user And that's what matters. ), an Xbox one and Xbox One S, a W10 HP desktop for my daughter. 1 October 17, 2022, 7:41 AM Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella speaks at the 2022 Yahoo Finance All Markets Summit on latest changes and growth in the tech industry. Ah, forgive my little moment. Google Glass anyone? - Increase in Consumer Disposable Income Nadella Satya can use the increasing disposable income to build a new business model where customers start paying progressively for using its products. Earlier that year his wife, Anu, had given him a best-selling book by Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck entitled Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, suspecting it might give Nadella some ideas for Microsoft. Quit being so stupid and open All devices to All carriers, Idiots. Which leads to no sales.. I still love my now essentially abandoned 950XL. Nhu Tran February 10, 2023 Satya Nadella at Microsoft Case Study 1. Nadella Satya has tried to diversify first using different brands and then by adding various features based on customer preferences. I'm not worried about the hardware though. They will not be visible to the average user and that most of their existing devices will become not-so-profitable in a few years. Any good "global survey experts" on this thread? MShave been announcing 1 unified OS (now called OneCore) scalable since many years now. Not only has he failed loyal consumers multiple times, he continues to fail as a CEO in providing a true vision beyond what he wants for himself. Much of the above is completely theoretical. It was a damn fool thing to abandon WM10. Read Satya Nadella's letter to employees; . Phones arent't he new shiney objects anymore but that doesn't mean they're not relevant. I hope Nadella has jotted down a note to himself: Do not attempt to re-create Ballmer developers video. They lined everything up to continue growing the phones, but just didn't deliver. Since Satya became CEO, it has grown nine times to a valuation of $2.5 trillion, making Microsoft one of the world's two most valuable companies. Frankly, I don't trust MS any longer. The really really sad thing is that for a while ago, I was still defending for W10M and truly believed that MS had something cool they are working on. The faster release tempo is a good thing for consumers, but makes IT pros nervous. WP8 was the beginning of Microsoft's downward spiral in mobile because while they just started to get serious in mobile, iPhone was already in on it's 4th generation and Android was picking up steam due to it's open ended platform. You can create the best AI on the planet but if it's not on a mobile device and can be used daily then it's not going to be used. I can honestly say that it is not stress free and definitely not stable. There's no reason in the world Win 10 phones couldn't compete against iPhone & Android. I stand by that. Hit Refresh describes how Satya Nadella brought new life to Microsoft by rediscovering its "soul" when he took over as CEO in 2014. I say, it's never too late for Microsoft to put out a device and market it, as they should have been doing with previous devices, and it taking off. The high brass at MSFT has to be replaced. And users on Android and iOS simply replace MS services with Google's and Apple's. It is a crying shame that MS keeps coming out with innovative products but fails to follow up on developing the products. Engage with consumer spaces that they have not traditionally engaged in so secure infotainment systems, this will allow to fine tune 5g tech and leverage azure with Cortana analytics. Satya is writing his own book - Hit Refresh. He only cares about the income statement today and his bonuses. And partial credit goes to Windows Central, WinBeta too. except MSFT doesn't care about its own loyal users, with many of them switching to Android now. I am still using one drive, one note and outlook. This could be world bending. The Organizational Development solutions & strategies has helped Nadella Satya in coming up with unique solution to tap the un-catered markets. Their image is so strong that people want it blindly and make no mistake it will come truth in years to come (20 perhaps). I can only remember Windows Mobile 7.5/8 being so stable that I'd go months without a reboot. Why? time to get rid all my microsoft service. I would buy one. Anyway, Jason, I enjoy your articles, quixotic as they are at times :). Europe has 750 000 000 people, that's a bigger market than US. The problem I see is multi-faceted and not just about, "You have no phones for consumers." This presents Nadella Satya two big challenges how to maintain loyal customers and how to cater to the new customers. I think MS does have plans for Mobile (probably in line with Zach's overall vision) but they don't like to show devices till they are ready. Still using Winpho till ATT says they won't support it. Six challenges for Microsoft as the Satya Nadella era begins, His CEO speech: Reading between the software lines, New Microsoft CEO must focus on partners, too, What's next for the Microsoft insiders who didn't get the CEO nod. Microsoft crowned a new leader today, with Satya Nadella taking over the reins from exiting CEO Steve Ballmer. The entire current management team and board need to be shot. I read once that it was estimated that over 100,000,000 (100 million) WINDOWS MOBILE PHONES have been sold over the life time of Windows Mobile. Consumers are NOT going to continue to buy from a company that consistently gives up and drops support. In fact, without the iPhone Apple would be a struggling little company. Given all of this, it will basically be seen by the public as Yet AnotherWindows Phone. This let users make either Apple or Google that strong hold in their needed mobile lives which in turn dug a whole way too deep for MS to get out of. 96% of his compensation was performance-based, up from 71%. With the way they treated windows mobile and developers, it is going to be a real problem when (or if) they actually release this "andromeda" thing. Now, I am backing out of ALL their services and I am going to speak with my waller and go neck deep into the Apple Ecosystem. Windroid [andromeda OS for consumers]. Buy NVDA on any tech stock weakness, in the $180 to $220 range. Win 10 pcs are nowhere near 1.5 billion, and never will be. Additionally, the important thing to note is the smartphone/mobile market has been led directly from consumers, and not enterprise. Dont piss off too many partners. Currently idk how Microsoft can do to become great again. March 2, 2022, 9:52 AM PST. Hey Jason, thanks for this article. The day my Windows 10 phone stops working I will switch both my phone and laptop to Apple with no looking back. Microsoft partners earned an estimated $9.58 in revenue through services and software for every $1 that Microsoft generated in 2020a total of $984 billion, according to IDC. It just doesnt have apps. DO NOT bring back gates. A fan and loyalist since the first Samsung Focus, I'm not sure what to think of any potential refresh. In the scenario where the mobile is the Personal Computer it is much more important than building a laptop, an ultra mobile PC, a PC anything in fact. Nadella Satya is struggling to restructure processes in light of developments in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning. I have not commented on an article here in such a long time! You can create the worlds finished machine learning but if you are not getting the input from people on the most used devices then it will gradually lose traction to the devices people do use. Without that key influx of new devices, Windows 8.xs store is all gussied up with no one to dance with. Ok maybe im a fan boy but if they do release a new lte device what's the problem. Thats Nadellas new problem. When MS released Windows 8 (desktop) and WP 8. The WMR headsets i mean. It was doomed to failure, and it did fail. @JaimitoFrog.Yeahthats the ticketMS would be bankrupt in 6 months. My step sister's husband works for Microsoft, and he was stunned to hear I still owned a WP! The economy remains fragile. It helps him to spend time appreciating life's blessings. Just once. Hope in one hand s h I t in the other. Everything MS tries ends in failure.. The point is, Microsoft was WAY behind. Xbox will be spun off as a self governed entity and Windows/Office is already bordering on non relevant seeing as most people today, and I'm talking about real people, not you or me, get along just fine with an iPad or Android tablet. After all that there's a board shake up and we get Apotheker as head. Google now has a year's worth of my use and it's assitant, while not as nice as Cortana, has customized itself to me. There are many companies in the world that sell software for more than 20 billion dollars (including Microsoft). A very distant third, and dropping fast. I"ve been abandoned with every MS product I've ever bought into: WinCE PDAs and phones, Win 8, 8.1, Zune, Surface RT, both the Band 1 and Band 2, Groove (Spotify sucks on my MS 950 and my Surface Pro 3). Apple has HomeKit, Google something similar, Alexa also interfaces with a host of other services. Microsoft is really sorry about those other times it deserted you but it loves you - it's getting counseling and turning over a new leaf. Even within W10 product delivery it has been a mismatch of poor services - Cortana language/accent limitations, region dependencies, store credit card (cc) limitations (only cc of the region set can be used). The providers didn't offer them, andwhen they finally didget some in stock, he employees knew nothing about them and actively discouraged anyone from buying them. SINGAPORE November 17, 2022 Microsoft Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella visited Singapore today to experience first-hand how innovative technologies and insights are supporting the region's technology ecosystem of developers, startups and companies across every industry. Conclusion. Please refer to the appropriate style manual or other sources if you have any questions. So in hence higher risk, but doing so you stabilise your infrastructure and enable yourself to branch in via the replacement part, if the company is savy and has foresight. Have a full and frank exchange of ideas in the board room. What really hurt Windows Phone was empty promises that they lost interest on keeping. I'm guessing that the Xbox is next on the chopping block, and I would be shocked if MS releases another console after the One X. Nadella's management decisions are definitely defensible - but I still think a mistake. Tony Daltorio. Now time to guarantee their devices on point of sale. On 16th June 2021, Nadella has been further appointed as the Executive Chairman of Microsoft, succeeding John W. Thompson. Still a very profitable company, but no consumer play. 8 years? that Microsoft would fill in the mobile device space. Windows Phone was great for a small amount of time but it failed all in all. They wouldnt let Tmobile, Sprint and Verizon have a foothold on the devices. Worse-than-expected PC sales would also harm OEM revenues for Microsoft, both from consumers and enterprises. The mobile division was a money pit that was unlikely to turn a profit anytime soon (ifever); Bellifore even said that they had a PAY developers to make WP apps. For example, it was corporate spend that kept Microsofts OEM revenues from falling heavily in its most recent quarter. What did we get, oh we are committed to WebOS and its future. My #1 'Forever Dividend' Stock [sponsor] A heck of a way to treat your customers. Sad times. - Lack of critical talent I believe that Nadella Satya is suffering from lack of critical talent especially in the field of technology & digital transformation. Nadella should admit he made a mistake and walk back the decision to sacrifice not only Windows Phone, but all the folks who love it. If people start to use other software than Microsoft Office on those Android phones and Iphones then well then Microsoft is actually tottally irrelevant on the smartphones and hence really out of the bit data business in the smart phone business. You'll have a complete phone with you. According to Herminia Ibarra, Aneeta Rattan, Anna Johnston in Satya Nadella at Microsoft: Instilling a Growth Mindset study there are enough evidences that with such a high quality of products and services, Nadella Satya can compete with other global players in international market. 7. Mobile is small?? And here we are again. What current management fails to get is that they are focused on sub-optimization. Hi Bai, that's a valid point. When Nadella was named CEO of Microsoft on Feb. 4, 2014, Microsoft's market cap was about $311 billion, the cloud was a poorly understood and peripheral element in corporate strategy and the company was widely regarded as a once-great institution whose best days were in the rear-view mirror. Satya Narayana Nadella (Telugu: , / n d l /; born 19 August 1967) is an Indian-American business executive. In addition, Windows on the consumer side needs to aggressively address the pricing issue. I am one of those MS loyalists who believed all the hype (now looking like BS) about Windows utility and productivity across all platforms. Android at the time was basically percieved as a touch version of symbian. Google assitant works pretty flawlessly responding to "OK google", unlike the inconsistentcy of "hey cortana" on my Idol. Soooo, back out of mobile which is something that literally people in every corner of the planet use, or need, but jump onto some super-niche, iffy at best crap like VR? While Mr Nadella, the CEO of Microsoft, was declared the "Person of the Year" by the Financial Times, Mr Pichai was named the CEO of Alphabet, the principal company which owns Google, of which Mr. Threats can emerge from various factors such as - technological innovations, economic growth, increase in consumer disposable income, political developments & policy changes, and changes in consumer preferences . They seem to care about users of other platforms more than they do about users of MS' own services. No mobile phone/mobile device means you are OUT in the future of big data and office work as the tect world moves on. However, with OneCore/CShell, where Windows 10 can scale up or down, depending on form factor, a developer, developing UWP apps for Windows 10 desktops/laptops, simply will add the extra lines of code necessary for Windows 10 to scale down to a smaller form factor, such as might be presented by a phablet/voice enabled device (or even the rumoured Andromeda device). iPhone, Mac, ipad, Apple music, iCloud Email, Pages, Keynote, numbers etc. The only thing wrong with Windows Mobile was that MS did not commit to developing the OS and decided that MS did not need the consumers anymore. BTW, if your two Band-2 devices were working properly when you decided to leave the Microsoft ecosystem, how much would you sell them for?. They will naturally go with what they know, which won't be Microsoft. Overall, Nadella embraces self-awareness as a leader and for organizations: "If there's criticism for what you're doing, it's appropriate to look in the mirror and understand whether there are changes needed. I'm happily moving on to other platforms. Enter Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. What he fails to see are the longterm effects of his short term decisions. If UWP really means, for the most part, a wrapper to distribute apps in a low quality store then UWP lacks any real point other than as a curated software respository. Just how much will Satya Nadella get paid? why microsoft could not do it?
