LinkedIn CEO Roslansky Now EVP for Microsoft Office

Microsoft has appointed LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky as executive vice president for Office, expanding his responsibilities to include oversight of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Microsoft 365 Copilot. Roslansky will continue as LinkedIn CEO, reporting to Rajesh Jha for his Office role and to Satya Nadella for LinkedIn. Charles Lamanna, previously head of the Business & Industry Copilot team, will now report to Jha, enabling the Cloud + AI division to focus on Azure and foundational AI. The reorganization aims to strengthen AI integration and foster collaboration across Microsoft’s productivity and business applications as competition with Salesforce and Google intensifies. LinkedIn will remain a largely independent subsidiary, though the new structure is expected to encourage tighter platform integration. Microsoft states that the changes are not directly related to recent job cuts.
