Steve Ballmer, CEO, Microsoft

You may have varied opinions on him & the company he represents, but check out the Channel 9 interview with Steve Ballmer.

Can you imagine a German CEO of a multi-billion dollar shop, let's say our dear friend Jürgen E. Schrempp, being filmed & interviewed sitting in front of his office door with a standard camcorder by one of his underlings (albeit a high-profile underling :-).

Can you imagine him being as passionate about his work as Ballmer is? Can you imagine him having an office as unpretentious as Ballmer? You can't?

Think about it.

Update I: Yes, some of Ballmers answers have kind of a rehearsed quality - but that's not my point.

Update II: Our CEO is even more passionate than Ballmer. But we're not a billion dollar shop (yet :-)
