Jeff Teper - sometimes referred to as the 'father of SharePoint', and part of the team that recruited current CEO Satya Nadella to the company in 1992 - is now head of corporate strategy at Microsoft



From Neowin:
Microsoft has been gradually reshuffling its executive team in recent months, following the departure of Steve Ballmer, and the beginning of Satya Nadella’s tenure as the company’s CEO. Some of the big changes include Scott Guthrie’s appointment as Executive Vice President for the Cloud and Enterprise Group, and the return of Stephen Elop to Microsoft, where he is now in charge of its Devices Group.

Bloomberg reports that the latest executive to be reassigned is Jeff Teper who, until recently was the Corporate Vice President for the Office Service and Servers Group. Company spokesperson Peter Wootton confirmed that Teper has been promoted to take charge of Microsoft’s corporate strategy, with a broad remit that will include business areas such as company acquisitions and development.
