Chief Executive Officer of Uber, Travis Kalanick, announced his staying away from work to mourn the passage of his mother. Kalanick did not, however, state when he hopes to return.

Uber, which is making moves to overcome scandals besetting it, will be administered by a management committee, the South China Morning Post has said.

It is likely Kalanick will not return to his post as CEO owing to an advance copy of a report submitted to the board.

The decision was reached at a staff meeting on Tuesday, where findings of a probe carried out by former US attorney general, Eric Holder, contracted to investigate accusations of discrimination, aggressive culture and harassment levied against the company, was compiled.

The meeting resolved that there is need to create a board oversight committee, rewrite cultural values of the company, reduce alcohol consumption at work, and forbid close employee-boss relationship, amongst other 43 recommendations.

The complete draft of the resolution was endorsed on Sunday by Uber’s board.

Another affected officer of Uber is the head of business, Emil Michael stationed at the San-Francisco outreach.

Some of the Kalanick’s responsibilities, as CEO, will now be taken over by a chief operating officer. He has for a long time been deciding who occupies the position without an existing holder.

The report describes the person who occupies the COO position as one who will “act as a full partner with the CEO but focus on day-to-day operations, culture and institutions within Uber”.

“The ultimate responsibility, for where we’ve gotten and how we’ve gotten here, rests on my shoulders,” Kalanick wrote in an email to employees.

“For Uber 2.0 to succeed, there is nothing more important than dedicating my time to building out the leadership team.

But if we are going to work on Uber 2.0, I also need to work on Travis 2.0 to become the leader that this company needs and that you deserve.”

Recent revelation of scandals has called for the giving up of positions of management members.

Uber’s has more than 14,000 personnel who are bereft of a second-in-command capable of deputizing for the CEO. Steps are underway, however to get a befitting occupier.

Just last week, Frances Frei of the Harvard Business School was engaged in the capacity of a senior vice president of leadership and strategy, while Wan Ling Martello of Nestle SA occupies the position of an independent director.

With recent distress at Uber, its business growth is not affected at all owning its revenue increase to US$3.4 billion in the first quarter, same time losses decreased maintaining an actual asset of US$708 million.
