Dorsey has a difficult past with the Twitter leadership post. In 2008, the business’s board of directors removed him as CEO, only two years after he helped create the company (though he stayed on the board). He returned to the CEO post in 2015 after Twitter had gone through two prior CEOs, but in 2020, a group of investors on Twitter’s board began trying to replace him. They noted his split focus and lack of inventiveness, but Dorsey was able to keep his job. However, he resigned in November 2021 for reasons that remain unclear.
Following Dorsey’s resignation, Twitter’s CEO was Parag Agrawal. He doesn’t appear to be staying around for long at this point. Elon Musk is set to buy the firm and take it private (a saga that began with him only wanting to become a board member, then backing out of the deal), and he’s rumored to serve as interim CEO if the deal goes through. But Musk is a busy man who runs both SpaceX and Tesla, so it’s probable he’ll want to find someone else to take over.
