Yes, Tim Cook will retire even before 2030!

After a decade as Apple's CEO, Tim Cook's imminent retirement has sparked discussions about his successor. Despite being slated to receive 1 million shares in 2025, there's a prevailing belief that Cook, who is currently 62 and will reach the U.S. retirement age of 66 in 2027, will likely step down between 2025 and 2028. The speculation is fueled by the dynamic expansion of Apple's product lineup under Cook's leadership, including the anticipation of a mixed reality headset next year and augmented reality glasses, a launch Cook expressed a desire to witness before his departure. As the head of a multitrillion-dollar empire with over 100,000 employees, the question of who will take the reins remains a subject of widespread speculation, with names like Kate Adams, Eddy Cue, Peter Stern, Oliver Schusser, Jennifer Bailey, Craig Federighi, Kevin Lynch, Sebastien Marineau-Mes, John Giannandrea, and Greg Joswiak being considered as potential successors.

There is speculation growing regarding Tim Cook, who celebrated his 10-year anniversary as Apple's CEO in August 2021. Cook succeeded Steve Jobs and, while not surpassing Jobs' legacy, has overseen remarkable growth, expanding Apple's product range.
