Chris Williams Departing iHeart
Williams added, “It is a voluntary and amicable departure. I shared my intentions with iHeart months ago and I’ve continued to work throughout the summer to make this a smooth transition. While this isn’t breaking news for iHeart, it was time to make it LinkedIn official. I’ll continue as GM & Chief Product Officer through Labor Day to ensure a productive hand-off and then my 17-year run at iHeartMedia comes to a close. What a run! The opportunities and trust that iHeart has placed in me have changed my life, and the lives of my family and opened up an entirely new career trajectory going forward.”
Wrapping up, Williams said, “Wherever I sign on for my next 17 years, I look forward to another amazing run, creating products that are authentic, impactful, and long-term. But most importantly, I’m excited to bring together another collection of brilliant, creative, and gracious people who inspire each other to achieve more than we ever could individually. When I find a destination that asks me to do that again, I’ll let you know where to find me!”
