In a surprising turn of events, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has taken to Twitter to announce that he has found the perfect candidate for the position of CEO on the social media platform. The announcement has been met with excitement and curiosity as Musk has been known to make bold and unexpected moves in the past.
The search for a new CEO at Twitter has been ongoing since the departure of former CEO Jack Dorsey in November of 2021. Since then, the platform has been led by interim CEO Parag Agrawal, who has been credited with several new features and initiatives aimed at improving the user experience.
However, it seems that Musk believes that there is still much more that can be done to take Twitter to the next level. In a tweet that has since gone viral, he wrote: “Just interviewed Twitter CEO candidates yesterday and will have to say it was inspiring to see how much they care about solving the platform’s problems. Here’s hoping we can make a positive change for the Twitterverse!”
Excited to announce that I’ve hired a new CEO for X/Twitter. She will be starting in ~6 weeks!
