I can understand shuffling Officers around within a large organization like Google. We get bored or want to spear head special projects.
However, Google eliminated the CTO position. Google is a high tech company, without a Chief Technology Officer.
It doesn’t make much sense to me. But Google does seem to have lost their way recently, with abandoning projects and getting into non-search related projects.

I think it opens things up for some new rivals.

Good for him, he’s in the driver’s seat now. Isn’t that why we strive to become the ‘vital’ to our employer’s success. Having achieved that, he’s created a demand for his skills that, if properly exploited, could lead him to a place where job satisfaction is higher still.

Maybe he asked for something new to work on? Top talent tends to get bored working on the same old thing… For clues – Maybe look at what he worked on before the tube or any charity he is actively involved in. If you have or don’t care about money you have a lot more choices…
