Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino has announced her resignation, effective July 9th. She had been serving as the Chief Executive Officer of Twitter, which is a social media platform owned by Musk.
Linda Yaccarino, the CEO of Twitter, has announced her resignation effective July 9th, after leading the social media platform for two years. In a post on Twitter, Yaccarino expressed gratitude to Elon Musk for entrusting her with the responsibility of "protecting free speech, turning the company around, and transforming Twitter into the Everything App." She highlighted several achievements during her tenure, including a "historic business turnaround," prioritizing user safety, particularly for children, and restoring advertiser confidence [1].Under Yaccarino's leadership, Twitter implemented several platform innovations, such as Community Notes and the upcoming X Money feature. She also mentioned that Twitter would be entering a new chapter with @xai, though she did not elaborate on specific details about this transition or the future direction of the company [1].
Yaccarino described Twitter as "a digital town square for all voices and the world’s most powerful culture signal" and expressed confidence in the platform’s future success. She did not reveal her future plans in the announcement, stating that she would continue to be active on the platform [1].
The resignation comes amid Elon Musk's ongoing involvement in various political activities, which have been a source of concern for some investors. A leading Tesla analyst recently called on the electric vehicle company's Board of Directors to act and set ground rules for Musk to manage his political ambitions [3].
Twitter's stock price has been volatile in recent months, with the company facing challenges related to user growth, advertiser confidence, and regulatory issues. The resignation of Yaccarino may have implications for Twitter's future direction and its ability to attract and retain talent [1].
