Get inside the head of one of the most important leaders of our
time with this collection of quotes from-global business icon and
philanthropist Bill Gates, the co-founder and former CEO of
Microsoft. After founding Microsoft in 1975, Bill Gates took the
software industry by storm. Today, Microsoft has become one of the
largest technology companies in the world-boasting a market
capitalization of more than $1.6 trillion. From the Windows
operating system to Microsoft Office Suite, Gates and his team
forever changed the way people use computers-and ultimately planted
the seeds of a global technology revolution in the process. Gates
has long been ranked as one of the world's wealthiest men-which
gave him a name recognition far greater than that of most CEOs-and
businesspeople of all stripes have looked to him as a role model,
using his words and business strategies to help create, inspire,
and grow their own companies. After he stopped running Microsoft's
day-to-day operations in 2008 to devote himself full-time to the
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, a kinder, gentler Gates began
to emerge. In stark contrast to the implacable reputation Gates
earned as a CEO, as a philanthropist, Gates has helped to change
the lives of millions of people worldwide. In technology, in
business, and now, in philanthropy, Gates has proven himself to be
one of the most influential people of our time. Bill Gates's second
act is no less compelling than his first. This collection of quotes
provides an inside look into the inner workings of one of the most
revered, and occasionally controversial, business icons of the past
four decades. And whether you're interested in his personal life or
looking for inspiration to drive you forward in your own business
endeavors, Bill Gates: In His Own Words has much to offer. As the
tech giants who distinguished the turn of the 21st century shape
public life in ways that outstrip the previous century's titans of
industry, we look to figures like Gates for inspiration. Now
updated, expanded, and redesigned since its original publication in
2012 as Impatient Optimist: Bill Gates In His Own Words, you can
find Gates's most inspirational, thought-provoking quotes in one
place.
