A new Bloomberg report points to Apple’s new focus on making sure that it has someone ready to fill the boots of any executive who leaves – including Tim Cook.
Cook has been CEO for ten years and while he won’t be leaving any time soon, Bloomberg says Apple is getting ready for all eventualities.
As Cook begins his 10th year at the helm, his management group is filled mostly with senior vice presidents who have worked at Apple for more than two decades, made tens of millions of dollars and are at or near the ages of 55 to 60 when many previous executives have stepped aside. That, along with typical corporate planning, has spurred the Cupertino, California-based company to cultivate its next class of top managers, said people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified talking about internal company discussions. Apple declined to comment.
