Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, stated that he had chosen a new CEO of Twitter and that she will start in that position in the coming six weeks.
Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, has claimed to have hired a new chief executive officer (CEO) to lead the social media behemoth he purchased last year. With his viral post, the billionaire has ignited a frenzy over probable candidates. According to the Wall Street Journal, NBC Universal's president of advertising Linda Yaccarino is vying to be the future CEO of Twitter.
A new CEO for X/Twitter has been hired, I'm happy to say. She will begin in around 6 weeks! A few hours before, Musk had stated, “My job will move to becoming exec chair & CTO, managing product, software & sysops.
Here is all the information you need to know about Linda Yaccarino.
According to Yaccarino's LinkedIn profile, she has worked at NBC Universal since 2011. Her current title is chairwoman, worldwide partnerships and advertising. She had previously worked for the business as the cable entertainment and internet advertising sales section.
Yaccarino had worked for Turner for 19 years; her final position there was Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer for Advertising Sales, Marketing, and Acquisitions.
She attended Penn State University to study telecommunications and liberal arts.
According to a WSJ article, Yaccarino has been a proponent of discovering new techniques to gauge the success of advertising.
Yaccarino apparently told her pals in the past that she intended to lead Twitter, according to a Business Insider piece (behind paywall). She has backed Musk and stated that the businessman needs time to turn around the firm.
Ella Irwin was mentioned in the Insider story as a potential candidate for the position of CEO, though. Irwin is presently in charge of Twitter's division for trust and safety initiatives. Following her promotion, she is claimed to have cultivated a positive connection with Musk.
