Neal Mohan, who is from India, is a CEO like Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen, and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai. All of these people are also from India.
Neal Mohan will be the new CEO of YouTube. Susan Wojcicki, who had been CEO for a long time, stepped down on Thursday (February 16). Google, the company that owns YouTube, got its start in Wojcicki’s garage.
Her leaving comes at a time when people are both excited and worried about how AI chatbots like ChatGPT (which is now part of rival Microsoft’s Bing Search) might change how people search for information online in the future. Short-length videos like those on TikTok and Instagram Reels also give YouTube a lot of trouble.
Mohan wrote on Twitter to Wojcicki, “It’s been so great to work with you over the years. You’ve made YouTube an amazing place for both people who make videos and people who watch them. I can’t wait to keep going with this great and important mission. “I’m excited about what’s to come.”
Who is Neal Mohan?
Neal Mohan is the chief product officer at YouTube and is in charge of YouTube Shorts and Music. He joined Google in 2008 after graduating from Stanford. He has also worked for Microsoft and is on the boards of Stitch Fix, a company for personal styling, and 23andMe, a company for genomics and biotechnology. He is also a member of the independent US think tank Council on Foreign Relations.
Early years
Mohan went to Stanford University for four years to get a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. After that, he went to the university’s Graduate School of Business to get an MBA in the early 2000s.
He worked for DoubleClick, a company that sells ads on the internet, for a long time. In 2007, Google bought him, making him a part of the tech giant. He went on to become senior vice president of Display and Video Ads. “He knows a lot about our product, our business, our communities of creators and users, and our employees. Wojcicki said that Neal will be a great leader for YouTube.
Function at YouTube
Fast Company said that since he became chief product officer in 2015, Mohan has helped oversee and launch some of YouTube’s biggest products.Last year, he told Fast Company, “The best comparison I can think of is to think of YouTube as a stage.” “Viewers need the best possible views of the creators they’re most interested in,” says the BBC.
Business Insider said in 2013 that he was once offered a job as Chief Product Officer at Twitter, but Google paid him close to $100 million to stay. It also said that his former boss thought he was a “rare” combination of “an “insatiable technologist” who also knew enough about business to interact with customers on a strategic level.”
Mohan, who is from India, is a CEO like Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen, and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai. All of these people are also from India. Laxman Narasimhan, who is about to take over as CEO of coffee chain Starbucks, and Raj Subramaniam, who is the CEO of FedEx, one of the world’s largest transportation services companies, are also of Indian descent and lead other well-known US companies.
