Two Twitter leaders are leaving after Musk’s deal to buy the company.

An internal memo shared with employees said that the platform’s general manager and general manager for revenue would be departing.

Two of Twitter’s leaders are leaving as part of a shake-up of top executives, according to an internal memo shared with employees on Thursday, as the company grapples with a takeover from Elon Musk, the world’s richest man.

Kayvon Beykpour, Twitter’s general manager, is leaving and will be replaced by Jay Sullivan, according to the memo, which was obtained by The New York Times. Mr. Sullivan is currently the interim general manager of the consumer product. Bruce Falck, Twitter’s general manager for revenue, is also departing the company.

“It’s critical to have the right leaders at the right time,” Parag Agrawal, chief executive of Twitter, said in the memo to staff. Mr. Sullivan’s “product vision, ability to inspire, move quickly and drive change is what Twitter needs now, and in the future.”

The truth is that this isn’t how and when I imagined leaving Twitter, and this wasn’t my decision. Parag asked me to leave after letting me know that he wants to take the team in a different direction.
