Elon Musk Says New Twitter CEO Probably In Place By End Of 2023

From Forbes: Elon Musk says he’ll probably step down as the CEO of Twitter after he finds someone to take the role by the end of 2023. But I wouldn’t bet on it.

Musk, who installed himself as CEO of Twitter when he bought the company in Oct. 2022, held a Twitter poll back in December asking if he should step down. To the shock of many, the poll concluded with 57.5% of respondents saying he should let someone else run the company. Anecdotally, it seems even Musk’s biggest backers think he should put more focus into his other companies, including Tesla and SpaceX.

But the issue kind of disappeared over the past couple of months, with Musk grabbing headlines in other ways. That is, until he was asked about when he might step down at a conference on Wednesday.

“I need to stabilize the organization and just make sure it’s in a financially healthy place and the product road map is clearly laid out,” Musk said via video chat at the World Government Summit in Dubai.
