Elon Musk took over Twitter in the final phase of 2022, and since then it has gone through a lot of controversies.

The criticisms that Elon has faced for running Twitter are because of his unconventional style of managing the company.

The other reason why Elon has received criticism and condemnation for his work as the CEO of Twitter is because of the enormous layoffs that he brought to Twitter.

What made Elon hire Linda Yaccarino as Twitter’s new boss?

Elon got a glimpse of Linda’s talent back in April of this year only. 

Linda was interviewing Musk and delivered her insights in front of Musk on the mindset he needs to adopt for running Twitter effectively.

She stated, ‘Advertisers need to feel that there is an opportunity for them to influence what you’re building’.

Also what she said was that he should strive to make Twitter a place where advertisers would be happily willing to spend money for advertising purposes. 

And doing that will involve product development and content moderation.

These sharp insights by Linda intrigued Musk and he decided to hire her thinking that her insightful mind will prove to be a great asset for Twitter.

Also, what you should know in the matter of this is, while Linda is now the CEO of Twitter she will not be wholly accountable for the happenings inside Twitter.

She will take care of the operations while Elon will still be in charge of technology and design.
