As we build out the next phase of the agentic web, we have a tremendous opportunity to transform every role, business process, and industry. The distinct categories of today will all converge to power this next wave of innovation. And to that end, we are bringing together LinkedIn, Microsoft 365, and Dynamics 365 to redefine and to drive these new Al solutions.<\/p>\n
With that context, I am excited to share two organizational updates:<\/p>\n
First, Ryan Roslansky will take on an expanded role as EVP of Office, reporting to Rajesh in that capacity, while continuing as CEO of LinkedIn reporting to me, and will remain on the senior leadership team. In this new remit, Ryan will lead Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and the Microsoft 365 Copilot application, building on the great work Sumit Chauhan, Gaurav Sareen, and their teams have done.<\/p>\n
LinkedIn remains a top priority and will continue to operate as an independent subsidiary. I am super energized by the momentum Ryan and the LinkedIn team are driving, as they help more than 1.2 billion professionals connect, learn, hire, and sell. This move brings us closer to the original vision we laid out nine years ago with the LinkedIn acquisition: connecting the world\u2019s economic graph with the Microsoft Graph. And I look forward to how Ryan will bring his product ethos and leadership to E+D.<\/p>\n
Second, Charles Lamanna and the Business and Industry Copilot team will move to report to Rajesh. This change aligns with our newly formed Al Business Solutions CSA, which brings together our strength in Modern Work and Biz Apps. Charles has consistently kept us focused on what it takes to win in business applications and the agent layer, and I look forward to the impact he and his team will have in E+D.<\/p>\n
Ultimately, this is about having the right structure to support the innovation that is now possible to drive more customer value, without the constraints of industry categories of the past.<\/p>\n
Please join me in congratulating Ryan and Charles on their new roles.<\/p>\n
