On the outside, both Lazaridis and Balsillie appear much the same, well-groomed, tailored suits, executive grins, etc. Inside though, Lazaridis is the technical genius who created the initial foundation for BlackBerry wireless communication devices and Balsillie represents the business side of BlackBerry, focusing on the firm's strategic direction.
