"I think I need to stabilize the organization and just make sure
it's in a financially healthy place and that the product roadmap
is clearly laid out," said Musk, speaking virtually at the World
Government Summit in Dubai, when asked if he had identified a
new Twitter CEO and when that person would be hired.
"I don't know, I'm guessing probably towards the end of this
year would be good timing to find someone else to run the
company, because I think it should be in a stable position
around, you know, at the end of this year," he said.
On Dec. 21, Musk said on Twitter that he would resign as its
chief executive "as soon as I find someone foolish enough to
take the job!"
He added that he would "just run the software & servers teams".
Musk ran a poll on the social media platform days earlier on
whether he should step down as Twitter CEO, in which a majority
of respondents said he should.
