Critics called for Mark Zuckerberg to step down as CEO. |
|
As Facebook’s share price continues to plummet, critics have accused Mark Zuckerberg of being ‘in over his hoodie’ and called for him to step down as CEO. Corporate experts have suggested that the 28-year-old founder should stick to what he does best as a technological innovator and hand the CEO reins over to a more experienced executive. And any doubts about Zuckerberg were further compounded on Thursday as the company’s stock price plunged to an all-time low dropping to $19.87 – almost half its IPO price. 'There is a growing sense that Mark Zuckerberg, talented though he may be, is in over his hoodie as CEO of a multibillion-dollar public company,' Sam Hamadeh, head of research firm PrivCo, told the Los Angeles Times. Hamadeh said with developments happening so quickly Zuckerberg has ‘precious little time’ to grow into his CEO role, like other company founders often can. Following the LA Times article questioning Zuckerberg’s abilities, one Twitter user posted 'Mark Zuckerberg resign as $FB CEO immediately.’ Indeed, some of those who believe Zuckerberg to be ‘in over his hoodie’, actually blame the hoodie itself. He famously wore sneakers and the trademark hoodie for Facebook’s first big investor meeting – a move that was slammed as immature and disrespectful to the corporate world. Chris Whalen, senior managing director at Tangent Capital Partners in New York, told the LA Times, that the behaviour was something he’d expect of a 28-year-old. 'He's trying to appeal to his audience instead of being responsible to his investors. His job now is to run the company,’ he said. Other experts say Zuckerberg, who personally lost nearly $670million on Thursday, is being unfairly targeted. His supporters argue that the stock’s dire performance is because investors now realise that Facebook’s growth potential isn’t as brilliant as they had earlier hoped and believed.

隨著Facebook公司股價持續(xù)下跌，一些批評人士指責馬克-扎克伯格能力有限，要求他卸任CEO職務(wù)。 公司專家建議，這位28歲的Facebook創(chuàng)始人應(yīng)該專注于自己的特長，做一名技術(shù)創(chuàng)新者，將CEO的寶座交給更有經(jīng)驗的高管。 上周四，F(xiàn)acebook的股價下跌到19.87美元，是發(fā)行后的最低點，只有發(fā)行價的一半，這也加深了人們所有有關(guān)扎克伯格的能力質(zhì)疑。 調(diào)查公司PrivCo的老板薩姆-哈曼德告訴《洛杉磯時報》說：“人們越來越認識到，也許馬克-扎克伯格很有天賦，但他做一家價值數(shù)十億美元的上市公司的CEO卻不稱職。” 哈曼德說，隨著行業(yè)的迅猛發(fā)展，扎克伯格“沒有多少寶貴時間”成長為一名合格的CEO，就像其他公司的創(chuàng)始人那樣。 在《洛杉磯時報》質(zhì)疑扎克伯格能力的文章刊登后，一位推特用戶寫道“馬克-扎克伯格應(yīng)該立刻辭去CEO。” 事實上，一些認為扎克伯格“能力有限”的人們其實也指責他的著裝。 在Facebook的首次股東大會上，扎克伯格依然穿著運動鞋和標志性的連帽衫。一些人認為他這樣做很不成熟，對公司界也很失禮。 紐約寶成投資有限公司高級經(jīng)理克里斯-惠倫告訴《洛杉磯時報》，他早就認為這位28歲的創(chuàng)始人會這樣做。 他說：“他在努力取悅他的觀眾，而不是想辦法對投資者負責。他現(xiàn)在的工作是經(jīng)營公司。” 其他專家表示，人們對扎克伯格的指責有失公允。僅在上周四一天，扎克伯格的身價就縮水了近6.7億美元。 他的支持者認為，股價的疲軟表現(xiàn)是因為投資者現(xiàn)在認識到了Facebook公司的增長潛力不像他們之前希望和相信的那樣樂觀。 相關(guān)閱讀 厭倦加好友？Facebook新應(yīng)用讓你加“敵人” 美國白宮提出“網(wǎng)絡(luò)隱私權(quán)議案” （中國日報網(wǎng)英語點津 Julie 編輯：陳丹妮） |
