Google Executive Marissa Mayer Named New Yahoo CEO

By  at Search Engine Journal

marissa mayer yahoo ceo Google Executive Marissa Mayer Named New Yahoo CEOEarlier this afternoon, Yahoo! announced that it has appointed Marissa Mayer as its next President and CEO. The company is undoubtedly hoping that Mayer, who is Yahoo’s third chief executive in under a year, can help recapture some of the search engine’s lost market share. Since the majority of industry analysts and insiders were predicting the job would be awarded to interim CEO Ross Levinsohn, the announcement was completely unexpected and shocked the industry.

Although Mayer has less executive experience than her predecessors, she was one of Google’s first employees, and she has been instrumental in their success. In addition, she has a Master’s degree in computer science from Stanford University, and she has a comprehensive understanding of both the technical and business challenges that Yahoo currently faces.

During Mayer’s 13 years at Google, she held many positions, including engineer, designer, product manager, and executive. She was Google’s twentieth employee, its first female engineer, and, most recently, the executive that led Google’s local and location division. Even though she was a rising star and a stellar spokesperson for Google, there has been speculation about tension between Mayer and Larry Page’s senior leadership team.
