Summary
From the CEO of Microsoft, Satya Nadella, an inspiring account of the transformation of an organisation and the coming transformation of humanity.
As told by Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Hit Refresh is the story of corporate change and reinvention as well as the story of Nadella's personal journey, one that is taking place today inside a storied technology company, and one that is coming in all of our lives as intelligent machines become more ambient and more ubiquitous. It's about how people, organisations and societies can and must hit refresh - transform - in their persistent quest for new energy, new ideas, relevance and renewal.
At the core it's about us humans and our unique qualities, like empathy, which will become ever more valuable in a world where the torrent of technology will disrupt like never before. As much a humanist as a technologist, Nadella defines his mission and that of the company he leads as empowering every person and every organisation on the planet to achieve more.

promising start...
loved the initial principles but got bogged down in tech. Guiding principles about creating organisational change were great but a little too much tech future chat for my liking

Starts really well but then
Starts well but then the intriguing personal story at the beginning evolves into an explanation of what and why of Microsoft. Almost an explanation as to why we slacked off but now we are getting back on track so don t worry..

Thought provoking and relevant
Excellent commentary of the world and its future, and not only Microsoft's place within it, but everyone's.

mostly an extended Microsoft brochure
Started really strongly, but felt like it became a walk through the Microsoft brochure at times. some interesting points around his life and quantum computing but mostly felt like a sales pitch for o365 and azure

inspiring with a spit
Sataya tells us an amazing story of changing Microsoft. There are some great insights into the way the company has changed and the way businesses should be looking towards the future. At times there's a little too much Microsoft spin but in actual fact they have a lot to be proud of in the changes they've made over the last few years and in the impact they are having.

Really worth your time
I came to hit refresh with an open mind. I was conscious of the negative reviews that this was a "Microsoft promo book" but this wasn't the case for me. I only knew parts of Satya story so it was good to gain context. I am pleased he took the time to write this book during his tenrure and I only slightly disappointed that he didn't take time to record all of the audio version. I think this would have given more power to his authentic voice

A fantastic insight to Microsoft and it's CEO
I listened to this before going to Inspire, which was perfect timing to appreciate the changes Microsoft are going through and get an insight into Satya's focus on technology and culture
