THE STORY – Jack Dorsey Officially Named Twitter CEO

What to say when people are giving you shade…
Dorsey is also CEO of Square. His position as CEO for both companies had many unsure about how his performance would be. Dorsey has been telling people not to worry about it because he has it covered. Dorsey tweeted today, “I’ve been CEO of both companies for over 3 months now. I have the smartest, strongest, and most determined leaders in the world on my teams.” (Source: CNN)
DA SKIM
Dorsey has a lot of work cut out for him considering Twitter’s stock dropped 25% this year. Reports show that Twitter does not intend to compensate Dorsey for his CEO title but Dorsey seems to be okay with that. He does own a $575 million stake in the company. You can tweet him good luck @jack. (Source: CNN)
Quote of the Day: “Do the right thing”
Remember over the summer when Google announced a change in their structure and that Alphabet would be their new parent company? Well that change happened on Friday. The big change that has people talking is the removal of the infamous “Don’t be evil” from the new parent company’s code of conduct. Before the search engine went public, Sergey Brin and Larry Page had dubbed “Don’t be evil” as the unofficial motto of Google. Alphabet has replaced this in their code of conduct with “Employees of Alphabet… should do the right thing – follow the law, act honorably, and treat each other with respect.” That’s a good message too, but don’t be evil sounded better.
