Satya Nadella's Thought Process & Message To The Microsoft Employees.A Great Game Changer.

What we can learn from this man who is the CEO of one of the most successful company in the world.

Microsoft shouldn’t be classified as a computer company, a database and applications software provider, a maker of games or mobile phones.

It’s a productivity company, that’s how its CEO, Satya Nadella, sees it. He went as far as to leave stylish and sticky terms like “mobile-first”, “cloud-first” out of the company’s new mission statement.

“Our mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. I’m proud to share that this is our new official mission statement,” he wrote in an internal e-mail (that was later leaked) to 118,000 Microsoft employees last week.

“We have unique capability in harmonizing the needs of both individuals and organizations,” he continued. “This is in our DNA”.

This has never been as viable and valuable as it is now, in today’s mobile, cloudy world.

After all, who wants to log out of one endpoint and log into another in order to do something simple like add a carton of milk to the family’s cloud-based grocery list (it’s why Microsoft acquired Wunderlist maker Wunderkinder) or to approve an invoice while standing on the sidelines waiting for your kid’s soccer game to begin? Getting it done, seamlessly and simply, is what it’s all about. That’s productivity. Mobile and Cloud are the great enablers of these experiences.

Think about One Drive, One Drive for Business and Azure co-exiting and an intelligent agent (Delve) knowing where you want to store your stuff as well as from where it can be retrieved via whatever means is most readily available or makes the most sense.

From an end users perspective, Nadella is talking about a whole lot more than bringing Web/Enterprise 2.0 experiences to tablets and phones.

“Today, we live in a mobile-first, cloud-first world, and the transformation we are driving across our businesses is designed to enable Microsoft and our customers to thrive in this world.”

It’s important to note, said Nadella, that Microsoft’s worldview for mobile-first is not just about content and collaboration via mobile of devices.

“It’s centered on the mobility of experiences that, in turn, are orchestrated by the cloud,” he said. That is why we think of these two trends together. What we do with our products and business models has to account for this fundamental transformation.”

This is why Microsoft owns One Drive and Azure— they are enablers of productivity. They aim to make it simple, and almost natural, to work with Word, Outlook, Excel, Office, Office 365, Sharepoint Online, Microsoft Dynamics, apps like Sunrise and more , at any time and from anywhere.

It’s also why, in some cases, Cortana (a smarter version of Siri) will pop up to help you any time you have a question or need anything. It’s why Microsoft built Delve, so that everything you need, and might not even know you need, will show up on your screen, when you allow it to. Microsoft will continue to offer more as it learns more about you and how you live.

Of course, it’s going to do this without being creepy. And since they’re not in the business of serving ads to you, their motive is a bit different than say…

Nadella also called on his employees to become “customer-obsessed”. This he meant in a more general way.

“We will learn about our customers and their businesses with a beginner’s mind,” he told his team, “and then bring solutions that meet their needs. We will be insatiable in our desire to learn from the outside and bring that knowledge into Microsoft, while still innovating to surprise and delight our users”.

And finally, Nadella held out a challenge to his employees- to make Windows, and in this case Windows 10, which comes out later this month, an end-user obsession.

“We have the opportunity to connect with 1.5 billion Windows customers in 190 countries around the globe. We aspire to move people from needing Windows to choosing Windows to loving Windows. …”

If anyone can reinvent Windows, it’s this Microsoft team. And if it succeeds, our windows to the world will provide workplace experiences that we might not even imagine today.

We’re excited, and we’re watching!

Change Management Is A Continuous Process & It can Bring In Improvement.

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt

For years I lived an uneventful existence. I wasn’t happy. I wasn’t unhappy either. I was just sort of stuck.

I had a good career, earned lots of money, and I had great friends and a loving family. You would think that this doesn’t sound too bad, but I felt unfulfilled and unmotivated. I repeatedly lived each day like the one before.

I looked around me and saw that everybody within my own circle of friends, relatives, and immediate family were no different. They too seemed stuck. They seemed unmotivated—like they were living their lives on automatic pilot.

I began to question why this was. Why do so many people just accept this pattern as normal, as if this is the way it is supposed to be?

I read hundreds of books on philosophy, psychology, and spirituality. I continued with this for a couple of years until I gradually I began to see things with greater clarity. I began to wake up. Then one day, out of the blue it just hit me, like a ton of bricks.

The key to unlocking my prison door was not contained in any books I read (although they did help me somewhat). It was in my ability to accept what “is” in this moment. So I now I make that choice.

Here are 8 tips to help you make that choice:

1. Remember that you are powerful.

Most of the time we have no idea what we are supposed to be doing, or who we are supposed to be imitating. I say “imitating” because this is what we do: We conform to the external environment.

We play roles and cover up our true selves by identifying with “things” that end up defining who we think we are. I’m a doctor, a salesperson, a secretary, a lawyer; I’m sad, happy, lonely, or miserable. I’m angry, jealous, afraid, and I can’t help it—it’s who I am.

The truth is, though, we are none of those things. They are symptoms of the sleepwalking disease. You are more important than any label. We are not our professions. We are not our feelings. We are not our circumstances. We are not even our mind.

What we are is far greater, far superior, far more important, and far more mysterious than our conceptual mind tries to define. This is why we are far more powerful than we think we are.

2. Choose to embrace life.

Let go and embrace the moment, whether it contains an obstacle or an opportunity. Stop fussing over trivial matters and start focusing on what’s really important to you.

Don’t go through life expecting things to change. Life becomes hard and unfair when we decide to complain about things rather than trying to change them ourselves. Wake up to the truth that life is not a practice-run.

Be bold and courageous, and make decisions that benefit your growth. Put yourself on your imaginary death-bed and realize that time stands still for no one. Start as soon as possible to make any necessary changes you may need to.

Take the first step before more time gradually passes by while you stand still stagnating. Your choice. Your life. Your responsibility. Your power.

3. Realize that you get to control your reactions.

We create our outside reality by the thoughts and beliefs we maintain about life in general. What we believe in our inner world, we see in our outer world—not the other way around.

We all have problems, and we’re often tested by circumstances outside of our control. Even though you may not be in control of what’s going on outside of you, you most definitely can control your reaction to those situations.

We have the power because our inner world (cause) affects the influence we allow the outer world (effect) to have on us. So next time you hear somebody mention that you have great personal power, know they are 100% correct. You have more control than you think.

4. Know that no one is better qualified.

We place far too much emphasis on other people’s opinions about us, often to the exclusion of our own. This takes away from our own personal power. No matter what anybody says about you, it doesn’t hold any significance to who you truly are unless you identify or agree with them.

Stop identifying with other people’s opinions and become aware of how you see yourself. Nobody knows you better than you do. Never accept another person’s reality as your own. Always believe that you can achieve anything you put your mind to. And, most importantly, never let another person’s opinion of you affect what you believe about yourself.

5. Believe that you are more than enough.

If you have to compare yourself to someone else, let it be a person who is less fortunate, and let it be a lesson to learn just how abundant your life truly is. It’s just a matter of perspective.

You may find that you are not entirely grateful for what you possess. You may believe that you need more than you have right now to be happy. If this is the case, then you are absolutely right—you will need more, and you will continue to need more.

This cycle will perpetuate as long as your mind believes it to be true. If you focus on what you have, and not on what you lack, you will always have enough, because you will always be enough.

6. Love yourself.

You have arrived. Everything you need is right here. Cut out the distractions, open your eyes, and see that you already have everything in your possession to be happy, loved, and fulfilled.

It’s not out there. It never was out there. It’s in the same place it was since the day you were born. It’s just been covered up by all the external things you have identified with over the years.

Be yourself. Love yourself completely and accept everything that you are. You are beautiful. Believe it, and most importantly, remind yourself often.

7. Stay cool.

If someone cuts us off in traffic or skips the queue at our local cinema, we may feel our blood pressure begin to rise and feel the need to react in a negative manner. We get uptight with other people’s actions, and in the end we punish ourselves for their bad behavior.

We end up losing control over our own actions because of the way other people act. But we are responsible for our own action, regardless of how rude other people may act. If it’s hard to stay cool, remember: you are the one who loses in the end, if you lose the lesson.

8. Journey well.

We know life is about the journey and not the arrival. We don’t need to arrive if we accept that we are already here.

Be content with where you are today and don’t make the mistake of putting off being happy because you are waiting for the right moment to shine. Sometimes it takes a conscious effort to enjoy the journey.

Not everyone woke up this morning and not everyone will go to bed tonight. Life has no guarantees. Every minute you are living is a blessing that has to be experienced in the moment. It’s not always easy, but it’s always an option—a choice. Your choice.
