POSSIBLE CEO's so far

So upon @uiux suggestion I figured I'd share some thoughts on possible CEOs.

My TOP PICK for CEO as most of you are fully aware due to my constant fanboying is .............

1. Steve Mollenkompf (former CEO of Qualcomm) - .........NOW, while he is my top pick I do think it's not the most likely scenario, this is my dream scenario CEO he has all the credentials we could ever dream of for a CEO and the SP would exit earths atmosphere on his appointment. Previously raised thoughts on why he may be a possibility are in my previous post below but taking into account PvdMs comments in the commsec interview that we're looking for a 2ic type from an big tech company it could be considered unlikely -

2. BRANDON YOON - soon to be former Apple Korea GM / Sales Management (Previous experience at MICROSOFT and SAMSUNG

Definite possibility in terms of experience and connections and the KOREAN connection would be highly favourable. Timing may be a little out since it has only just been discovered he's leaving. Further discussion can be found here -

3. SIMON SEGARS - current ARM CEO (outside chance) as most of you know NVIDIA is buying ARM. Where would segars go if it went through? There are numerous obvious connections to ARM / BRN so it's not completely out of the question, but considering the ARM / NVIDIA deal may drag on for months yet I'd say at this point it's highly unlikely we will see a Segars appointment not to mention again PvdMs comsec comments........but stranger things have happenned.

4.Jim Whitehurst (former IBM president) personally I've ruled him out since he recently moved house to TEXAS and therefore away from BRN head office..........but ya never know - https://www.datacenterknowledge.com/ibm/jim-whitehurst-left-ibm-because-hed-rather-be-ceo

5.@chapman89 has raised someone from SAMSUNG (amongst others) in the past which I thought was interesting and he can post below because I can't be bothered to wait for him to find his post.......

WILD CARD - Utku Diril - Former Facebook Lead Architect and Design Manager for ML - Experience is lacking somewhat for the role but has previously worked for APPLE and NVIDIA, and anyone who is in charge of ML at FACEBOOK must be at the top of their game no? Not likely but possible imo further discussion here -
