CEO of Microsoft Satia Nadila The company’s human resource head is transferred, Kathleen HoganIn a new role that focuses on corporate strategy. Hogan has been announced in an internal note for Microsoft employees this morning, and will submit a direct report to Nadella and will be responsible for the strategy and transformation.
Hogan was in Microsoft for more than 20 years and spent the past decade as a senior official of the company. She helped enter a new work culture in Microsoft and takes over the HR president after Nadella became the CEO in 2014. Now, Hogan must direct the strategy through rapid changes in the Microsoft AI era.
Microsoft did not have a person responsible for the company’s strategy for some time, so this is an interesting change. I must think of returning to Mark Ben and Steve Palmer Days to find a somewhat similar role to what Hogan takes. Ben was responsible for the strategy through the works of Microsoft facing the consumer, and Be behind Anti -companyScroogled“The effort before Departure. I don’t think we will see anything similar to Hogan.
“[Hogan] Nadella says in his note: “Kathleen will work through the Supreme Command team while we draw this next stage of our transformation, which requires the interpretation of the outside and the redefinition of the inner part,” Nadella says in his memo.
I assume that the “interpretation of the outside” indicates the technological change that artificial intelligence makes on Microsoft, along with some political winds that are sweeping the United States now. Hogan has already cut off her work to manage the various cultural changes of Microsoft over the past ten years, as well as changes in the company’s priority and many workers’ demobilization rounds.
These hairstyles were especially painful recently, as Microsoft provides more performance under Hogan performance discounts. In recent weeks, Microsoft employees have spoken of fears that discounts occur regularly and without the transparency that you usually see with Microsoft’s typical approach to demobilization.
Hogan does not seem to have been marginalized here. “We and Cathlein have discussed planning to move and caliph for some time,” Nadila says. Amy Coleman It has supervised the human resources operations of multiple parts of Microsoft over the past four years, and are now promoted to senior officials. Coleman will also join the Microsoft High Command team and submit a direct report to Nadila.
with Chris YoungHead of Business Development, Strategy, and MICROSoft M12 Fund Leave at the end of the monthColeman’s upgrade will fill the point of the upcoming leadership team. Microsoft does not share anything else about Hogan’s new role today, but as the software giant progresses and faces more complicated options, I am sure that the Hogan experience will be a key to ensuring that people are in the right roles as the company is preparing to celebrate the fifty anniversary and looks forward to the next fifty years.
The new Xbox Copilot will be from Microsoft as Coac AI gamesH

Overwatch 2 The hero who helps your team or guides you through drafting Minecraft. However, illustrations felt a greater degree of concepts instead of reality.
