Bill Gates was not "fired" in the traditional sense; rather, he stepped down as CEO of Microsoft in 2000 to focus on his philanthropic efforts and other ventures. He remained involved with the company as chairman and chief software architect until he gradually reduced his day-to-day role. In 2006, he announced that he would transition to a part-time role to dedicate more time to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Ultimately, his departure from day-to-day operations was a strategic decision rather than a firing.
