Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is stepping down later this year.
Amazon has an internal succession planning process that helps prepare for leadership changes.
The process includes annual board reviews of internal charts that list top senior executives.
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos s decision to officially step down last month came on short notice.
Even those working closest to the CEO s office learned about it just two days before the announcement, according to people familiar with the matter.
That s when Bezos signed the paperwork and formalized his move to executive chairman, as the US Securities and Exchange Commission requires any material change at the company to be filed within four business days. Amazon Web Services CEO Andy Jassy will replace Bezos as Amazon s CEO in the third quarter of this year.
