Microsoft is ready to make its enterprise and cloud head, Satya Nadella, the company’s new chief executive officer, and it may replace Bill Gates as chairman, according to reports. Nadella appeared to stand out as one of the stronger options to replace retiring CEO Steve Ballmer several weeks ago, but the plans are not yet set in stone.
Nadella reportedly is in contract discussions with the board, and Microsoft is likely to announce its CEO appointment within the next week. Nadella would seem to fit the bill.
