CEO SPOTLIGHT EXCLUSIVE: Word on the street tonight is that Coca-Cola's president, Donald R. Knauss is leaving! This just following Pepsi's CEO's announcement that he was leaving to spend more time with his family (Indra Nooyi will take his spot this October). Knauss has been with Coca-Cola for 12 years now. Prior to this job, he served on the boards of top brands like Frito Lay and Proctor & Gamble. He helped launch Coke Blak and Tab Energy which stole the crown from Pepsi. Knauss is currently in trouble with the Fed's, facing 55 U.S. bottlers. Did he leave to escape the law? Family? Co-workers? WHAT? Someone tell me... I say his next move is probably to serve on the boards of Kellogg's (the cereal company). Why do you guys think he left? What does this ultimately mean for Coke? BLAB ON drop in a comment.
