Fear not, Nvidians, the man who wrote the book on Nvidia says the company’s success doesn’t rely on Jensen Huang

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has resigned after admitting to an affair and facing allegations of another, prompting concern about the company’s future. Tae Kim, author of *The Nvidia Way*, argues Nvidia has capable successors and would not be “completely lost” without Huang, though his departure could still affect the company’s direction.

Kim says one internal candidate has the technical expertise, experience, customer relationships and employee respect to lead Nvidia, while an unnamed external candidate also has strong technical and management credentials. Colette Kress is the interim CEO; Nvidia shares fell after reports of Huang’s alleged second affair, but Kim did not identify either person he sees as a potential successor.
