WeWork, as it seeks to rebuild following a messy departure of former co-founder and chief Adam Neumann in September.<\/p>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported WeWork, now majority-owned by Sprint parent SoftBank, opened discussions with Legere and aims to install a new CEO as soon as January 2020.<\/p>\n<p>CNBC and\u00a0The New York Times reported Legere is one of a number of executives being considered for the position.<\/p>\n<p>Neumann resigned after coming under pressure following a failed attempt to list the company on the US stock exchange.<\/p>\n<p>SoftBank subsequently agreed a $9.5 billion bailout of the struggling company, in return for an 80 per cent stake and the installation of its COO (and former Sprint CEO) Marcelo Claure on the board.<\/p>\n<p>WSJ noted Legere&#8217;s successful turnaround of Deutsche Telekom&#8217;s US operation as a factor in his potential candidacy with WeWork.<\/p>\n<p>The executive was originally expected to lead the combined T-Mobile and Sprint, but this has been delayed by more than a year: his current contract expires in April 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Legere was recently asked about his long-term plans, but offered no clear answer, instead highlighting the steady leadership of COO and president Mike Sievert, who is regarded as heir apparent [1].<\/p>\n[1]
