Linkedin

Microsoft, the parent company of LinkedIn, has tapped Daniel Shapero, the professional networking site’s current chief operating officer, as its next CEO, current chief executive Ryan Roslansky announced earlier this week.  Shapero, who has been serving as COO since 2021, wrote on the platform Wednesday, “Today, I’m taking on the role as CEO of Linkedin. I joined Linkedin in May 2008 as employee #300ish, and it’s easy to say that my time at the company has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life.” The network has close to one-and-a-half billion users worldwide.  While rarely speaking publicly about his Jewish background, Shapero highlighted his Jewish immigrant grandparents’ resilience opening businesses in Maine and Pennsylvania in a 2019 episode of the “Disrupt Yourself Podcast.” He also shared in a LinkedIn post that his great uncle was discriminated against for his background and not offered entry into medical school, instead becoming a pharmacist.  The leadership transition comes as Microsoft ramps up its AI push across its services, including introducing new generative AI tools on LinkedIn designed to draft posts, enhance user profiles and assist with personalized job searches.  “Last year when Satya Nadella asked me to lead LinkedIn

Español | English My family loves traveling. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we started a tradition of visiting national parks. Long road trips became our thing. At this point, our two kids have been to 50 of them!  Interestingly, one of those road trips took us from our home in the Bay Area in California through Memphis, Tennessee, during the summer of 2023. It was just another pin on the map. I never imagined we would return under such different circumstances — or that we would end up living there for nine months the following year.  Around Thanksgiving in 2024, my 12-year-old daughter, Anika, developed what looked like an eye stye. We did hot compresses. We waited. But it kept getting worse. In February 2025, her doctors ordered additional tests and found out it was myeloid sarcoma, a rare cancerous tumor most common in people with acute myeloid leukemia.  A few weeks later, Anika was accepted to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital® after meeting the criteria for a new treatment.  Within days, my wife and I, along with our children, moved to Memphis.  Those first months were hard. I remember that, as a scientist, I was frantically trying to figure things out and asking, “What can I do to help?” But as a father, I felt very powerless, not knowing what her treatment response was going to

Daniel Shapero was named CEO of LinkedIn this week, stepping into the role long held by Ryan Roslansky. But after nearly two decades at the Microsoft-owned company, Shapero says he didn’t climb to the top by chasing titles—he did it by choosing the right people.  “The best career decisions that I’ve ever made have been about the people I got to work with,” he told Bloomberg last year.  “We’re all more malleable than we give ourselves credit for. We adapt to our environment. And so the best decision I’ve ever made was when I chose to work around people who were going to shape me into the person I wanted to be, as opposed to career decisions about the specifics of the job or the task.” Early in his tenure, that philosophy meant staying put. During his first over half decade in sales, Shapero worked under the same manager—a stretch he credits with sharpening both his performance and his leadership instincts.  Rather than job-hopping for faster promotions, he doubled down on mentorship, betting that the right environment would compound over time. Shapero long had his eyes on the C-suite—but the path to the top required tough love from LinkedIn’s former

(LinkedIn Photo) LinkedIn has a new CEO for the first time in six years. Daniel Shapero, the company’s chief operating officer since 2021, is stepping into the top job, reporting to Ryan Roslansky, who was elevated last year to executive vice president overseeing both LinkedIn and Microsoft Office. The changes come as LinkedIn crosses $5 billion in quarterly revenue for the first time, putting it on an annual run rate of more than $20 billion. The business social network has been owned by Microsoft since its acquisition by the Seattle-area tech giant for $26.2 billion in 2016. Roslansky announced the changes Wednesday (in a post on LinkedIn, of course) saying he also asked Mohak Shroff, LinkedIn’s longtime engineering leader, to take on the new role of president of platforms and digital work. Both Shapero and Shroff report to Roslansky. Roslansky put the moves in the context of the accelerating impact of AI on the labor market. “Last year when Satya Nadella asked me to lead LinkedIn

LinkedIn holds a privileged position in the history of social networks. Not without reason, it was one of the first networks to be created, alongside other pioneers such as Myspace, although their paths have diverged significantly. Now firmly established as the world’s leading professional social network and with over 300 million monthly active users, LinkedIn continues to evolve, becoming one of the first applications that we open every morning. Given this relevance, Metricool has devoted one of its detailed studies to the platform, with the aim of uncovering useful insights into how we utilize and how LinkedIn functions within the field of marketing. To carry out this study, more than 670,000 posts from over 60,000 LinkedIn accounts at an international level were analyzed, during the months of January and February of 2025 and 2026. Through this analysis, Metricool has discovered that the main indicators of interaction have declined compared to last year: likes have fallen by 13%, comments have dropped by 17%, and shares have decreased by 10%. However, not all the news is negative: clicks have increased by 5%, as have other non-visible actions such as link clicks, video views, carousel swipes, or link openings. Taking all of this
