"When I think about the pantheon of leaders who have truly shaped this company, Rajesh stands firmly among them. He embodies the commitment that helped build and transform Microsoft into the company it is today, and it is on the strength of that foundation that we will continue to move forward."
"Jha, who oversaw some of Microsoft's most important products and services, including Windows, Office and Teams, said in a press release that he's been planning for his succession alongside CEO Satya Nadella for a while. Rather than bringing in a direct replacement, four members of his team will be promoted to executive vice president and report directly to Nadella."
Rajesh Jha, Microsoft's head of Experiences + Devices, is leaving the company after more than 35 years of service. Jha oversaw critical products including Windows, Office, and Teams. Rather than appointing a single successor, Microsoft is promoting four executives to EVP roles reporting directly to CEO Satya Nadella: Ryan Roslanksky (Office and LinkedIn), Pavan Davuluri (Windows and Surface), Charles Lamanna (business and industry Copilot), and Perry Clarke (Microsoft 365 Core). Jha will officially transition out on July 1 and remain in an advisory capacity. CEO Nadella praised Jha as a foundational leader who shaped Microsoft's transformation.
