????史蒂芬?埃洛普

????当前职务：CEO，诺基亚

????埃洛普曾在微软、瞻博网络和Adobe公司担任过高管职位。按照他的履历，他应该是鲍尔默继任者的热门人选。他了解科技行业，尤其是微软，曾领导过与Office产品开发有关的所有团队。最近，他一直在努力扭转诺基亚的艰难处境。然而，他在诺基亚智能手机上采用Windows操作系统的策略没能赢得消费者的欢心，这或许会成为他的不利因素。

????Stephen Elop

????Current role: CEO, Nokia

????Elop, who has held executive positions as Microsoft, Juniper Networks and Adobe (ADBE), is an obvious candidate to succeed Ballmer based on his resume. He knows the technology industry and Microsoft in particular, having led the all-important group that makes Office. Most recently, he's been trying to turn around Nokia, the troubled mobile phone maker. However, his strategy of adopting the Windows operating system for Nokia's smartphones hasn't exactly been a hit with customers, and it will likely count against him.
