Cupertino, November 15, 2025 — Apple is reportedly ramping up its succession planning in a bid to prepare for CEO Tim Cook’s exit, possibly as early as next year. According to sources, the board and senior executives are intensifying discussions around potential successors, with John Ternus — Apple’s Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering — emerging as a front-runner.
As part of the leadership shake-up, longtime Apple executive Sabih Khan has recently been named Chief Operating Officer, stepping into a role that could be pivotal in the next phase of Apple’s management. The acceleration of succession efforts suggests the tech giant is making strategic moves to ensure a smooth transition at the top.
