Today is September 1st, and Apple has officially handed over the reins of CEO from Tim Cook to John Ternus. This commences a new era with Ternus leading the company.
You can see the change reflected on the company’s newly-updated leadership page, with Ternus getting the CEO title and Cook moving to the Board of Directors section in his new role as Executive Chair.
Ternus’ rise to the top job is expected to herald a shift in company strategy, with a more product-oriented vision compared to Cook’s operational expertise. However, these changes take time to trickle down. His first public-facing role will be to introduce the new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra lineup at the company’s fall media event, scheduled for September 9.
Previously, the board of directors were listed on the leadership website by name only. Alongside Cook joining their ranks, Apple has expanded the section to include profile headshots as well.
The board of directors consists of Tim Cook, Arthur Levinson, Wanda Austin, Alex Gorsky, Andrea Jung, Monica Lozano, Ron Sugar, Sue Wagner, and John Ternus (who gets a board seat as CEO).
You can see the new section in the screenshot below, including an updated headshot of Cook:
