Longtime Microsoft leaders Peter Lee and Ryan Roslansky to depart

Microsoft executives depart: Heading out the door in Redmond are Peter Lee, the Microsoft Science president and former head of Microsoft Research; and Ryan Roslansky, the former LinkedIn CEO who last year took on a broader role that included oversight of Microsoft Office. 

• Lee didn’t share his next role, but called it “a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join an elite team, fulfilling a dream I’ve had since childhood.”
• Roslansky said that continuing in his Microsoft role would have required relocating his family from the San Francisco Bay Area, which he wasn’t ready to do.
