Sonos has officially named Tom Conrad as its permanent Chief Executive Officer, following his tenure as interim CEO. Conrad took over leadership earlier this year after the resignation of Patrick Spence, who stepped down due to the troubled launch of a new app for the company's audio devices.
The announcement was made by Sonos' board of directors, highlighting the confidence in Conrad's ability to steer the company forward. Board Chairman Julius Genachowski emphasized that Conrad has earned the trust of employees, customers, partners, and shareholders during his six-month interim period.
Conrad, who has been part of the Sonos board since 2017, will continue to serve in that capacity alongside his new role as CEO. His previous experience includes significant positions at prominent companies such as Apple, Snapchat, and Pandora, bringing a wealth of industry knowledge to the role.
The transition to Conrad's leadership comes after Sonos faced significant backlash from users following the release of a completely redesigned app in May. The app was met with disappointment due to missing features and technical issues, leading to widespread frustration among the user base. As a result, Sonos spent months addressing these concerns, including hosting forums for user feedback, issuing public apologies, and committing to improve product quality.
In response to the app's shortcomings, Sonos outlined a series of corrective measures, including the promise to implement stricter quality controls and introduce a dedicated quality oversight position. The fallout from this situation also resulted in layoffs within the company, including the departure of several high-ranking executives.
As the new CEO, Conrad has expressed a commitment to restoring clarity, focus, and momentum at Sonos. He has indicated that the company is at the beginning of a new chapter, with numerous opportunities to enhance its offerings and customer experience.
With a clear vision for the future, Conrad aims to navigate Sonos back onto a successful path, leveraging his expertise to rebuild trust and satisfaction among its user community.
