Want someone from within Apple to succeed me as CEO, says Tim Cook

Apple Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Tim Cook, who has held that position since August 2011, has said that he wishes to be succeeded by someone from within the company itself.

During the BBC’s ‘Dua Lipa: At Your Service’ podcast hosted by the British-Albanian singer, Cook said, “I really want a person to come from within Apple, the next CEO…and so that is my role to make sure that there are several [options] for the board to pick from.”

However, he refused to reveal who all were being considered as Apple’s next CEO, when he steps down.
