Microsoft: Maintains management level of Activision Blizzard in the eye

Until the takeover of Activision Blizzard completed and officially gone on stage, it will take months. The time will also use Microsoft to look the publisher on your fingers. At least the leadership.

Microsoft President Brad Smith said in the interview with CNBC that you have to work for this to make things better and referred to the allegations of sexual harassment.

From the executives at Activision Blizzard, he demands top priority when it comes to culture and safety at work. After the acquisition you will then take it myself.

"I think if we have learned one when it comes to tackling topics like sexual harassment or almost any other cultural problem, then it is a combination of commitment and humility. You have to use it to make things better. "

"Today we expect the management level at Activision Blizzard that gives you the highest priority of culture and safety at work every day, up to the day when the deal is hopefully completed. And then we will take over and have to take the same commitment. "

When Man Smith asked what "if we take over" was meant exactly, he said:

"Well, we said that some aspects will change, but it will be a new team that works together."

"Most importantly, we want to see how the culture is developing, and we will see how people work between now and the day of graduation, assuming it is approved, and then we will have the opportunity to make sure that we have the right people in the right position. "

The employees in leading positions are therefore on the test bench. According to Smith, we should all live in a world in which we are checked.
