WeWork , the shared office space company once valued at $47 billion, emerged from bankruptcy on Tuesday and named Cushman & Wakefield executive John Santora as its new CEO. WeWork filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in November, with total liabilities of $18.65 billion against assets of $15.06 billion. Santora becomes WeWork's fourth permanent CEO in five years after the company's failed initial public offering in 2019 and subsequent restructuring. He replaces David Tolley, who began service as interim CEO in May 2023 before assuming the permanent CEO position in October. WeWork also announced a new board, including Anant Yardi, CEO of property management software company Yardi Systems.
