At the recent Microsoft Partner Event Software Strategy Summit, MVP Damir Tomicic interviewed Steve Ballmer at the end of his keynote. Damir, asked questions ranging from the current financial challenges to how Steve manages his daily “email flood”, which led to several laughs in the audience. The entire interview with Steve Ballmer is available for viewing on MSDN and Steve’s keynote can be seen here. You can also read Damir’s experiences of interviewing Steve Ballmer, by visiting his blog.

The interview also caught the attention of the local press, with a great article in the German IT magazine Computerwoche. The magazine also published pictures of Damir and Steve too! You can see the pictures here.

Fellow MVPs Stephan Walcher and Udo Sachansky also joined the Summit and blogged about their particular experiences of the event. Read more on Stephan´s blog and Udo´s website!

# Nice story. Unfortunately it was not the MVP, but the RD status that got him do it!

There used to be times when RDs could not be MVPs. But as requests raised for the freebies that MVPs got but RDs did not, MS did one of their major community mistakes. Anyway.

While Damir may be an MVP, from a Microsoft perspective he first and foremost is one of the only four German Microsoft Regional Directors. Which is what got him to interview Steve in Cologne. End of story.
