Wu Zhao, formerly the CEO of DingTalk, has been removed from his position for the second time due to perceived management flaws. His first departure in 2020 followed internal criticism over his handling of a cheating incident and a controversial hiring decision.

His recent reappointment to a group role suggests Alibaba is seeking leaders with a strong, decisive, and battle-tested approach for its new strategic phase, even if it means overlooking past management missteps.
