Microsoft is seeing a wave of executive departures, including LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky and Microsoft Science President Peter Lee. Several departing officials have worked at the company for more than 15 years. The exits come as Microsoft reassesses its operating model for an evolving AI landscape.

The leadership changes coincide with strong stock performance, which has prompted some long-serving employees to retire. CEO Satya Nadella is reportedly promoting younger leaders to guide the company through its strategic shift toward new challenges and opportunities in AI.
