In a major leadership change at Tesla Inc., Nagesh Saldi, the company’s top data executive, has announced his departure amidst ongoing supply chain disruptions and production challenges. Tesla, which has faced delays in its production pipeline due to the global semiconductor shortage, is navigating a difficult period as it strives to maintain its market lead in the electric vehicle (EV) sector. Saldi’s exit raises concerns about how the company will continue to innovate and optimize its operations without a key leader in data analytics—a crucial component in the tech-driven EV industry. Tesla’s future strategies for tackling supply chain issues and staying ahead of competitors like Ford and newer entrants in the EV space are now under intense scrutiny.
