Judson Althoff

As executive vice president of Microsoft’s Worldwide Commercial Business, Althoff is in charge of commercial business strategy for enterprise, public sector, small and medium-sized businesses and other areas. He joined Microsoft in 2013 from Oracle to become president of Microsoft’s North American business, reporting to Microsoft’s then-operating chief, Kevin Turner. Turner left in 2016, opening the way for Althoff, among others, to take more responsibility. Prior to joining Microsoft, Althoff had spent 11 years at Oracle, most recently as senior vice president for worldwide alliances and channels and embedded sales. He had worked at EMC prior to that. Althoff led the development of a major sales reorganization in 2017 that saw Microsoft go deeper in key industries like retail and health care.
