CEO of Salesforce AI Clara Shih has left

The CEO of Salesforce AI, Clara Shih, has left after just 20 months in the job.

Neither Shih nor the company has made an official announcement, but a source familiar with the matter confirmed to CIO that Adam Evans, previously senior vice president of product for Salesforce AI Platform, has moved up to the newly created role of executive vice president and general manager of Salesforce AI. Evans has already updated his LinkedIn profile to reflect his new job title.

In addition to corporate CEO Marc Benioff, Salesforce has a number of divisional or regional CEOs, of whom Shih was one. Some also hold the rank of executive vice president.
