Investing.com -- Microsoft Corp. announced Thursday that Ryan Roslansky, executive vice president overseeing M365 apps, will depart the company.

Roslansky previously led LinkedIn as chief executive officer starting in 2020 before leaving that position earlier in 2026. Dan Shapero will remain as LinkedIn CEO and will report directly to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, the company said.

Nadella wrote in a blog post that Roslansky's team spent the previous year combining product, engineering and design foundations for Microsoft's upcoming phase of work on Copilot.

Roslansky stated in the blog that he chose to leave because Microsoft's next work phase would require him to be based full-time in Redmond, Washington, while his family lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Roslansky will remain with the company through the end of the calendar year in an advisory role to Nadella.
