Google just appointed a new executive in the company to supervise the operation of its news division. The tech giant that is owned by Alphabet Inc. has chosen Shailesh Prakash to be the general manager of the said business unit.
It was revealed that the newly-appointed GM at Google's news group was a former executive at the Washington Post. He has worked as the daily newspaper publisher's chief information officer for a really long time, and on Wednesday this week, it was announced that he moved to the Mountainview, California-based tech company.
While working at the Washington Post, Prakash also led its design, product and tech teams for more than a decade. Now he is set to join Google in November.
It was said that his move to another company matters because for a long time, and with everything that he has been doing as the tech and news chief, he has already been considered the backbone of the newspaper's technological transformation.
"This is an enormous role, and Google gives him a chance to further pursue his interests at the intersection of news and engineering and to have a profound impact around the world," Reuters quoted Fred Ryan, the Washington Post chief executive officer, as saying in a memo that was sent to employees regarding Prakash's departure.
Moreover, Google's incoming news division's general manager joined the newspaper publisher's firms in 2011. Since then, he has built a better news delivery system in the age of digitalization. He has eventually become the vice president and general manager of news at Jeff Bezos' owned publication, as per the Business Insider.
The second richest man in the world had praised Prakash's leadership skills, so his departure from the Post was really a huge loss for the company. To give an idea of how much the newspaper had lost, it was shared by a source who is familiar with internal workings at the company, that Prakash was even being considered as a potential CEO. in any case, he is set to officially leave the firm two months from now.
