John Ternus: The making of Apple’s new CEO
Tim Cook has described John Ternus as a leader with both engineering and organisational strengths.
John Patrick Ternus, who spent his first year at Apple counting the grooves on screws, will become the next CEO of the tech giant after 25 years of service. Ternus, 51, will take over from Tim Cook on September 1, with Cook stepping down to become executive chairman. Ternus, who grew up in California and studied engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, started his career at Virtual Research Systems before joining Apple in 2001.
He eventually became vice president and senior vice president of hardware engineering, overseeing the design and development of products like the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro. Ternus' tenure at Apple will mark a new era for the company, as he takes charge of defining its future direction in a landscape marked by geopolitical uncertainty, supply chain challenges, and the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence.
