As well as creating a unified ecosystem across a range of devices Microsoft hopes that the reshuffle will also boost their ability to deliver quality back-end services. Ballmer cited “operational excellence in cloud services, datacenter operations, and manufacturing and supply chain” as “essential in a devices and services world.”
Outlining the new “core values” for Microsoft Ballmer said he wanted the company to be “nimble, communicative, collaborative, decisive and motivated”. As TechRadar noted, this “doesn’t sound much like the Microsoft we currently know.”
