Career Path update…
Sixteen years at LinkedIn. Five as CEO. And now, a new chapter.
While I continue to be the CEO of LinkedIn, an independent subsidiary of Microsoft, I'll also be stepping into a broader role, leading Microsoft Office and M365 Copilot.
And I hadn't even added an 'Open to Work' badge to my profile 🙂
When Microsoft acquired LinkedIn in 2016, we believed in a simple idea: that connecting professionals could create more opportunity for everyone.
That bet has paid off. LinkedIn is now one of Microsoft's most successful acquisitions, helping shape how people find work, grow their careers, and build what's next.
Office is one of the most iconic product suites in history. It has shaped how the world works, literally. The reach and impact of Office are unmatched.
I'm coming into this role in a new, exciting era. Productivity, connection, and AI are converging at scale.

Both Office and LinkedIn are used daily by professionals globally and I'm looking forward to redefining ourselves in this new world.
And on a personal level, and as a product builder at heart, I couldn't be more excited about this squiggly line in my own career path and the chance to lead two of the most impactful professional products in history.
Second reshuffle in three months
This is the second leadership reshuffle at Microsoft with previous one reported in March.
Nadella announced the reshuffle, appointing a new Chief People Officer (CPO) after Kathleen Hogan, who has served as CPO since 2014, transitioned to take up the role of Executive Vice President of the Office of Strategy and Transformation, Business Insider reported.
