On November 2021, Elon Musk announced his resignation as CEO of Tesla, the electric car company he founded in 2003. His departure marks the end of an era for the company, which has seen incredible success under his leadership.
Musk has been a controversial figure in the business world, but his accomplishments cannot be denied. He has been credited with revolutionizing the auto industry and bringing electric cars to the mainstream. He has also been a major proponent of renewable energy and space exploration.
The search for a new CEO has been underway since Musk’s resignation. Several names have been mentioned as possible replacements, including Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook’s former chief operating officer, Sriram Krishnan, engineer and close confidante to Mr Musk, and Jared Kushner, US former presidential adviser and son-in-law of Donald Trump.
It is unclear who will take over the role of CEO at Tesla, but it is certain that the company will have big shoes to fill. Musk has been a driving force behind the company’s success and his vision and leadership will be sorely missed.
Despite his resignation, Musk will remain involved with Tesla in an advisory role. He will continue to serve as the company’s chairman and will remain a major shareholder.
It is expected that the new CEO will be announced by 21-Dec-2022. Until then, Tesla will continue to be guided by Musk’s vision and will strive to continue the success he has achieved.
