Yoichi Wada, former CEO of Square Enix, was made “Chairman of the Board” earlier this month. What is his role with the company, exactly?
Square Enix explained in a statement:
“Yoichi Wada has left the management of Square Enix Holdings Co., Ltd and no longer has any role in the parent company. Currently, he is overseeing a portion of the business within Square Enix Co., Ltd (Square Enix Tokyo), one of the subsidiaries of the parent company. These businesses include emerging markets as well as social and mobile businesses. He has no authority in terms of the management of the Group.”
Square Enix also clarified that Wada is Chairman for Square Enix Tokyo. Wada isn’t in much of a position of power, as he does not hold the right of representation for the company.
