I don’t closely follow the news about Apple and now I’m wondering why they decided to go forward with this change at this moment.
As the world undergoes increasing supply chain issues, wouldn’t it be in Apple’s best interest to keep Tim Cook as CEO for a while? Or is he the one who’s looking to transition to a less demanding position?
- Gagarin1917 6mo agoTim must have wanted to enjoy 4/20 without worrying about company drug testing.
- arduanika 6mo agoHe already had the trail of his retirement mapped out, and picked the perfect moment to blaze it.
- LarsDu88 6mo agoProbably didn't want to sit through any more executive kowtow meetings with the Orange Man
- wombatpm 6mo agoI think supply chain optimization is untenable in a chaotic global trade environment. You don’t need to be an expert to buy from more suppliers and lay in a supply of stock. JIT falls apart when tariffs go from 20% to 120% to 15% based on whims and court cases.
- ghaff 6mo agoCook is also 65 and doubtless has more money than god. He's been a great success and it's not unreasonable to think he may have wanted to start riding into the sunset. Apple's wishes are irrelevant at some level.
