Apple executive leadership transition

Overview

Apple is undergoing a significant leadership transition as John Ternus prepares to succeed Tim Cook as CEO on 1 September 2026. In anticipation of this change, incoming CEO Ternus has rehired former hardware engineering vice-president Laura Legros to his senior team. Legros, who previously managed product delivery and development, will report directly to Ternus.

As the new leadership era begins, executive Luca Maestri has stepped down from his remaining operational duties overseeing corporate services, including information security and corporate real estate. These responsibilities have transitioned to the current CFO, Kevan Parekh. While Maestri remains on the company payroll to teach at Apple University, he is reportedly winding down toward retirement.
