For the first time since 2011, one of the world\u2019s most valuable companies has a new leader, as today marks John Ternus\u2019 first day as Apple\u2019s CEO. He\u2019s replacing Tim Cook, who will continue on as the executive chairman on Apple\u2019s board and departed with a letter to employees that remarked, \u201cThis place is proof that culture triumphs over everything. We share a belief that what we build matters, and that we have both the opportunity and the responsibility to leave the world better than we found it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ternus is taking over a company dealing with the rise of AI, shortages of RAM and other components due to that growth in AI, and a political and economic situation that is only getting more complicated as time passes. He will also do it without many of the executives who worked with Cook and Steve Jobs, like Phil Schiller, who Bloomberg<\/a> reported will step down<\/a> from his role leading the App Store.<\/p>\n With Ternus in charge, Tim Cook has been moved to Executive Chair and Phil Schiller continues as an Apple Fellow, despite handing off his day-to-day tasks<\/a> of heading up the Apple Store and Apple events. We can also see that Katherine Adams\u2019 position of SVP of government affairs has been fully vacated, with some of that responsibility being handed to Jennifer Newstead and Tim Cook, who\u2019s now Trump\u2019s full-time handler. Apple\u2019s former CFO Luca Maestri is no longer listed on the leadership team after he transitioned<\/a> to the roll of VP of corporate services in 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the first time since 2011, one of the world\u2019s most valuable companies has a new leader, as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":216849,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[23148],"tags":[633,474,14933,1528,2344,50,2110],"class_list":["post-216848","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-john-ternus","tag-apple","tag-business","tag-ipad","tag-iphone","tag-john-ternus","tag-news","tag-tech"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@people\/117221665468012471","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216848","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=216848"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216848\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/216849"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=216848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=216848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=216848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
