Stephen Elop, the former CEO of Nokia who headed Microsoft’s devices unit after its acquisition of the Finnish vendor, is leaving the US company as part of a management reshuffle.
A new team headed by Terry Myerson called the Windows and Devices Group (WDG) will combine the existing Operating Systems Group and Microsoft Devices Group (MDG), led by Elop (pictured).
The change leaves Elop, a one-time candidate for the top job at Microsoft, surplus to requirement.
