I'm as big of a Satya fan as anyone, but someone who doesn't get enough credit is Ballmer.
It wasn't a coincidence that on the day Ballmer stepped down and Satya became CEO (2014), Microsoft also announced Office for iOS, Cloud first strategy, and a whole slew of cloud/Azure product announcements.
All of which was developed under Ballmer watch and he handed off the launch and continued execution to Satya.
