Neal Mohan, the current chief product officer, has been chosen to take over the CEO role once Wojcicki leaves. The outgoing chief said Mohan who she had worked with for almost 15 years, is the right choice.
“I have spent nearly 15 years of my career working with Neal and he has led our Trust and Safety team, ensuring that YouTube lives up to its responsibility as a global platform.
