Over the past number of months, I have also gotten much closer to the revenue product work and believe that here too, we need to make a leadership change. Under his leadership, our product has evolved and grown meaningfully - I know I speak for all of us when I say we are deeply grateful for his tremendous impact. Kayvon has been an amazing leader and force at Twitter over the years with his founders mindset and deep passion for the service. With this change, Kayvon Beykpour will be leaving Twitter. I have therefore decided to make Jay the permanent GM of Bluebird. His product vision, ability to inspire, move quickly and drive change is what Twitter needs now, and in the future. Jay Sullivan, currently interim GM of Bluebird, has shown this powerfully. It’s critical to have the right leaders at the right time. A number of these changes are difficult but they are right for Twitter and its future.

Some changes are happening to us and some we will drive. The priorities and decisions we make now will not only bolster how we navigate through this time, but also for the longer-term success of Twitter which I care about deeply. During this time of change, it’s critical that we continue to strengthen our work through increased accountability and execution to make Twitter everything it can be. Building Twitter and serving our customers around the world is important yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
