Wow, That Didn't Last Long -- Angela Ahrends Departing Apple After Five Years -- February 5, 2019 -- Happy Lunar New Year

She probably wants to spend more time with her family.

Deirdre O'Brien, Apple's current "Vice President of People," is set to take Ahrendts' place. O'Brien will be taking on new responsibilities for Apple's retail and online stores in her expanded role as Senior Vice President of Retail and People, reporting directly to Apple CEO Tim Cook.

During her tenure, Apple shares have seen a devastating drop in value, or so it seems. Perhaps that's just been this past six months.

And as usual, it will be the 207 comments (so far) that will be most interesting.

I do  have to admit the new store layouts are awful. As much as folks joked about the "Genius Bar," at least one knew where to go when one needed help. Not so any more.
