The new Twitter CEO

In the latest turn of events, Elon Musk has warmly welcomed a new CEO for Twitter, Linda Yaccarino, the esteemed head of advertising at NBCUniversal.

With Musk transitioning to the roles of executive chair and chief technology officer, he will be focusing his creative energies on product, software, and system operations.

Yaccarino, on the other hand, will be the guiding force behind business operations, bringing her vast experience to the table.

The journey to this point, however, was not without its twists and turns.

Since Musk acquired Twitter in October, his tenure as the self-proclaimed “Chief Twit” has been a whirlwind of activity. Despite his earlier promise to step back from the role, the process of finding a suitable successor proved to be quite a challenge.

In the midst of this, Musk’s relationship with Parag Agrawal, the former CEO of Twitter, experienced some turbulence.
