????是的,，彭明盛做銷售出身，和鮑爾默一樣,。但據(jù)《財(cái)富》雜志（Fortune）杰西?亨普爾在2011年簡(jiǎn)介中稱,，他是科技行業(yè)的萬(wàn)金油，幾乎所有IBM的主要部門他都管過(guò),。

????正如《華爾街日?qǐng)?bào)》（Wall Street Journal）周一斷言的那樣,，像微軟這樣的公司，調(diào)整企業(yè)文化才是一切,。彭明盛強(qiáng)化了前任CEO郭士納留下的IBM文化,。他毫不留戀地拋棄了對(duì)IBM不再重要的業(yè)務(wù), 包括如今聯(lián)想（Lenovo）擁有的PC業(yè)務(wù)。這份冷靜和盤算有益于微軟旗下許多希望分拆的業(yè)務(wù),。

????在史蒂夫?鮑爾默即將卸任的消息傳出后,，微軟股價(jià)躍升。假如彭明盛接任能夠獲得肯定,，微軟股價(jià)會(huì)漲得更多,。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

????Yes, Palmisano is a sales guy, like Ballmer. But he also is a tech-industry jack-of-all-trades, having run all of IBM's major divisions, as described in this 2011 profile by Fortune's Jessi Hempel.

????For a company like Microsoft, fixing the culture is everything, as the Wall Street Journal astutely asserted Monday. Palmisano adroitly enhanced the IBM culture Lou Gerstner left him. He also unsentimentally jettisoned the parts of the company that no longer mattered to IBM, including its PC unit, now owned by Lenovo. Such cool calculation could benefit Microsoft's disparate parts, many of which are begging to be split off from the mother ship.

????Microsoft's stock jumped on news that Steve Ballmer is stepping down. Were Sam Palmisano to get the nod, it'd jump more.
