Jim Whitehurst Steps Down As IBM President
IBM astounded accomplices toward the beginning of July when it said that Jim Whitehurst (poctured) had chosen to venture down as its leader in the wake of serving just shy of 15 months in the job.
Whitehurst, who had been CEO of Red Hat for over 12 years, joined IBM as a component of its $34 billion procurement of the undertaking open-source programming supplier, an arrangement that shut in July 2019. IBM CEO Arvind Krishna credited Whitehurst for assuming a critical part Red Hat’s incorporation with IBM and being instrumental in articulating IBM’s procedure.
Whitehurst stays with IBM as a senior guide to Krishna and the remainder of the organization’s chief authority group. IBM presently can’t seem to name his substitution.
