Bill Gates, known mainly for his title as being the richest man in the world few years ago before he gave up a portion of his wealth for philanthropic endeavours has official retired from executive duties from Microsoft.
Many recognise Bill Gates for his wealth, to me Bill Gates is more than just the richest man in the world. Bill Gates revolutionised how we work; he is the epitome of strategic intent; he was a man of ideas and persistence; he was a genius!
A computer geek like myself can find no one better to worship besides him. Despite the fact that many call him an opportunist and so on and so forth, those are the very characteristics I admire in him. After all, we have to accept the fact that business is a world of "I-kill-you-before-you-kill-me". Microsoft started as a software house and now it has turned into a multinational business covering more than just software. Heck, even my desktop keyboard is Microsoft!
We earn money in terms of months, Gates earned his money in the minutes some say. Not surprising considering every minute, somewhere in this world some business or person is buying a computer fitted with Microsoft software.
Bill Gates leaves a very high benchmark for any human to reach. Forward thinking, innovative and constantly challenging the current mindset to take things to the next level - those are the benchmarks that would truly be a feat for the next revolutionary person to beat.
