Newell Brands board members are looking at potential CEO candidates, WSJ reports, citing people familiar with the matter.
The Board has discussed replacing Chief Executive Michael Polk following disappointing sales; however, one unidentified person familiar told the WSJ that change isn’t imminent.
Polk told WSJ that the company “has taken a series of very decisive actions to set up the business for long-term success.“
Newell declined to comment to WSJ on any board discussions.
