Elon Musk is aiming to find his successor to lead Twitter as chief executive officer toward the end of 2023. “I need to stabilize the organization and just make sure it’s in a financially healthy place and the product road map is clearly laid out,” Musk said via a remote video link to the World Government Summit in Dubai on Wednesday.
