Salesforce Inc.’s Slack is losing its second leader in less than a year as Lidiane Jones, the unit’s chief executive officer, said she is leaving to take the top post at dating app Bumble Inc.
“We are expecting to announce the next Slack CEO very soon,” Jones wrote Monday in a memo to staff at the workplace communication unit. To help with a smooth transition, Jones said she will work with Slack’s executive team through the end of the year. “I know this news is unexpected,” she wrote.
