Former Windows leader Steven Sinofsky tweeted that he's going to spend some time teaching at Harvard this spring.

In a follow up tweet, he added some clarity to what he'll be doing:

@iamjaygreene @harvardhbs Called "Executive in Residence" now.Research, writing, classroom on prod dev, planning, collaboration, and more. — Steven Sinofsky (@stevesi) December 19, 2012

Sinofsky was recently pushed out of Microsoft reportedly because he didn't get along with other executives.

Sinofsky has written a book on business strategy with Harvard Business School professor Marco Iansiti called "One Strategy." That book emphasizes the idea of a business having "a single, shared strategic perspective."
