Sharing some news here on the professional front for me.  After more than 15 years at Meta, I’ve decided the time is right for me to move on from my role as Chief Global Affairs Officer.  It’s been an extraordinary journey and opportunity, and I’m very proud of the team we built and work we did.  I will always be grateful to @finkd and @sherylsandberg for bringing me in all those years ago and supporting me and my work all along the way.  It has been a true privilege to work with Mark – one of the great founders, builders, and strategic CEOs in history – as well as his leadership team, and the incredible Global Affairs team we’ve assembled over the years. I’ll be at the company for a few months to help with the transition, and then look forward to catching my breath, making up for lost time with my beautiful wife, catching all of my daughter’s high school tennis matches, and surprising my son with frequent unannounced visits at college.  Somewhere in there will also find some time to figure out what I want to do next–will let you know when I do! axios.com/2026/10/20/joel-ka…
