    “This company has to change. What got us here is not what’s going to get us to the next level,” the Uber Communications team posted on Twitter tagging the new CEO in the tweet. Khosrowshahi said he would assume his post from September 5. 

    It took Uber’s board nearly 70 days to settle on a new CEO after the resignation of its co-founder and former CEO Travis Kalanick. Kalanick was in attendance at the meeting. Khosrowshahi previously described his relationship with the brash founder as “budding.” 

    Uber sources said, Iranian-origin Khosrowshahi was not among those reported to have been in the running. The list included Jeff Immelt, former CEO, GE, and Meg Whitman, head, Hewlett Packard Enterprise.
