WPP Group’s Ogilvy & Mather Worldwide is losing Shelly Lazarus, who said she’ll retire the end of the year. She’ll be replaced by Miles Young, the chairman of Ogilvy’s Asia Pacific regions. (In the past five years, the region’s revenue has just about doubled in size to $500 million). Lazarus will stay on board as chairman.

Etsy, an online marketplace for arts and crafts, said that co-founder Rob Kalin will step down as CEO to become chief creative officer. Maria Thomas, Etsy’s COO since May, will become the company’s CEO. Chad Dickerson will join Etsy as CTO; previously, he was at Yahoo.
