    Apotheker makes way at SAP: In a surprise move, Leo Apotheker is to step down as CEO of German business software giant SAP, less than a year after taking the job. He will be replaced by joint CEOs, SAP insiders Bill McDermott and Jim Hagemann Snabe. The company declined to provide details of why Apotheker is leaving. However, SAP has come under intense pressure recently as the economic recession has cut into sales and profits. The surprise announcement put downward pressure on SAP shares on Monday.
