Uber's board on Sunday chose Dara Khosrowshahi, head of online travel company Expedia, to be its chief executive, The New York Times reported, citing two people with knowledge of the decision. The decision came on the day another finalist, former General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt, dropped out of the running, lacking the necessary support. The board reportedly had been leaning toward picking Hewlett Packard Enterprise CEO Meg Whitman, but shifted gears when the directors and Whitman couldn't agree on details. Settling on Khosrowshahi marks the end of a long and contentious search to replace Uber co-founder and former CEO Travis Kalanick and return the ride-hailing company to stability after months of turmoil.
