Binance News · 2026-08-05T20:25:26.000Z

Laut CNBC hat Salesforce Miguel Milano als operativen Chief unter CEO Marc Benioff ernannt. Milano, ein ehemaliger Oracle-Manager, ist 2023 als Chief Revenue Officer zu Salesforce zurückgekehrt, nachdem er zuvor von 2011 bis 2020 in Europa bei dem Unternehmen gearbeitet hatte und danach drei Jahre bei Celonis als Chief Revenue Officer tätig gewesen war. Sein erstes Auftreten in Salesforce-Ergebnisgesprächen hatte er im vergangenen Jahr. Die Beförderung ist Teil einer umfassenderen Neuausrichtung im Leadership-Bereich bei Salesforce, das Benioff 1999 mitbegründete. Das Unternehmen hatte zuvor mit Co-Chief-Executives experimentiert, doch sowohl Keith Block als auch Bret Taylor verließen das Unternehmen, nachdem sie die Top-Position mit Benioff geteilt hatten. Robin Washington, ein Vorstandsmitglied, das im vergangenen Jahr zur Chief Operating and Financial Officer ernannt wurde, behält diesen Titel, während Milano die Rolle als COO übernimmt.

According to CNBC, Salesforce has appointed Miguel Milano as operating chief under Chief Executive Marc Benioff. Milano, a former Oracle executive, rejoined Salesforce as chief revenue officer in 2023 after previously working at the company in Europe from 2011 to 2020 and then spending three years at Celonis as chief revenue officer. He made his first appearance on Salesforce earnings calls last year.
The promotion is part of a broader leadership reshuffle at Salesforce, which Benioff co-founded in 1999. The company previously experimented with co-chief executives, but Keith Block and Bret Taylor both left after sharing the top job with Benioff. Robin Washington, a board member who was made chief operating and financial officer last year, will keep that title as Milano takes the COO role.
Salesforce shares have fallen 27% this year, alongside a broader slide in software stocks as investors worry cloud software vendors could be displaced by artificial intelligence. The company has been pushing its Agentforce AI services, which automate tasks. Srini Tallapragada is leaving after 14 years, while Rohan Kumar, a longtime Microsoft executive who joined Salesforce in June, will become chief platform and engineering officer. Alexa Vignone, who has been chief sales officer since January, will take on the title of revenue chief. Salesforce said annualized revenue from Agentforce has exceeded $1 billion, and executives said in May that revenue growth had accelerated this year after coming in below 10% for six straight quarters.
