Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer to retire within 12 months | Microsoft - CNET News

Microsoft starts the search for its 3rd CEO
"Steve Ballmer will retire from his role as Microsoft CEO within the next 12 months, Microsoft announced Friday.
Ballmer will remain as CEO until the board of directors chooses someone to succeed him.
"There is never a perfect time for this type of transition, but now is the right time," Ballmer said in a statement. "We have embarked on a new strategy with a new organization and we have an amazing Senior Leadership Team. My original thoughts on timing would have had my retirement happen in the middle of our company's transformation to a devices and services company. We need a CEO who will be here longer term for this new direction.""
