Facebook whistleblower urges Zuck to step down — good luck with that
As if that’s happening
Possible replacements
It’s hard to imagine that Zuck will be stepping down from the CEO position anytime soon. But what if it happens?
There are multiple candidates to take over. One of the prime choices would beAndrew Bosworth, the veteran exec who built News Feed. He’s currently serving as the head of Reality Labs, a critical component of Meta’s new direction.
Another candidate for the top position would be COO Sheryl Sandberg, who joined the company in 2008 from Google. She’s been a key executive in seeing the firm out of controversies, and shielding Zuck in the process.
While these two are the prime candidates for the CEO position, CMO Alex Schultz and CPO Chris Cox could be in the running too. But we don’t have to worry about all that, because Zuck is going nowhere. Blink twice if I’m right, Mark.
