Randi Zuckerberg, direktorica marketinga i Markova sestra, napušta Facebook nakon 6 godina

Randi Zuckerberg, Facebookova direktorica marketinga i sestra suosnivača Marka Zuckerberga, napušta najveću društvenu mrežu na svijetu nakon 6 godina rada. Randi je AllThingsDju objasnila kako namjerava osnovati vlastitu tvrtku posvećenu društvenim mrežama pod imenom RtoZ.

S obzirom da je bila itekako bitna za rani razvoj društvene mreže koju je prilagodila marketinškom svijetu  čije ga agencije i oglašivači danas svakodnevno koriste, bit će zanimljivo koliko će njen odlazak utjecati na Facebook. U svom pismu ostavke Randi Zuckerberg piše:

I have spent my years at Facebook pouring my heart and soul into innovating and pushing the media industry forward by introducing new concepts around live, social, participatory viewing that the media industry has since adopted. We have made incredible progress, but there is still much to be done and other ways I can affect change. Now is the perfect time for me to move outside of Facebook to build a company focused on the exciting trends underway in the media industry.

I’m proud of what I’ve done here and the people I have had the chance to work with. But I know I’ll be able to do just as much or more for Facebook once I’m on the outside. My goal is to launch my own innovative programming and work with media companies to develop their programming in new, and more social ways. In attacking this challenge, Facebook will clearly be a central element in all of my projects. I plan to demonstrate that ANYONE can do groundbreaking media work on the platform. And to the extent it makes sense for you, I’d be happy to advise Facebook on media projects, “Facebook Live” or other initiatives if it is desired.

As I end this chapter of my career, know that I leave with a deep love for Facebook and I value the experiences I have had here immensely. Be assured I will continue to be a strong, vocal evangelist for the most incredible social platform ever created. I am thankful for the strong mentorship, guidance, and support, which is empowering me to follow my dreams and show that you don’t have to be an engineer to be a hacker 🙂

Mark Zuckerberg zasad nije dao nikakav komentar o odlasku svoje sestre, ali je Facebook službeno potvrdio njen odlazak.
