Microsoft announced Tuesday that veteran manager Satya Nadella will succeed Doug Burgum as head of the company's Business Solutions group, which develops and markets the Dynamics brand of small and mid-sized business applications.

Burgum is leaving the company after a nine-month transition period. The executive shuffle is not expected to impact any upcoming product plans, including the pending debut of Microsoft Dynamics CRM Live.

"We are now on track to deliver Microsoft Dynamics CRM Live, Microsoft Dynamics GP 10, Microsoft Dynamics SL 7.0, Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 and other products in the pipeline over the coming year," Nadella said in a statement.
