after 10 years at the top of a company that has revolutionized the online search market, Eric Schmidt announced that from next April 4th will no longer be the CEO of Google. His place will be occupied by Larry Page, co-founder Sergey Brin, together with the company in Mountain View. The decision has matured during the holidays at the end of 2010. The triumvirate Schmidt / Page / Brin have long discussed the desirability of simplifying the management structure and more streamlined decision-making procedures. Schmidt will become Executive Chairman and will play a role of representation, while Brin will work on new products. In 2001 the two founders of Google had decided to entrust the guidance of a professional company that would give credibility to their project, an experienced person capable of guiding them in the right direction. But now his task is finished and, as he says on Twitter, “ the daily supervision of an adult is no longer needed. ” In about 10 years, Google has grown from 200 to more than 24,000 employees, a global giant with a turnover of 8.44 billion dollars and a net profit of 2.54 billion dollars in the fourth quarter of 2010.
