WW International, Inc. (WW), a digital-first health and wellness technology company, disclosed on Friday that its President and Chief Executive Officer Mindy Grossman will be stepping down following the conclusion of the first quarter in 2022. She will maintain her leadership role throughout the ongoing search for her successor.
Mindy Grossman took the helm of the organization in 2017 and has been instrumental in driving a comprehensive company overhaul. The executive orchestrated a major strategic pivot for the organization, which involved rebranding the former Weight Watchers into WW—a shift designed to underscore the company’s expansion beyond traditional weight management into a broader ecosystem encompassing personalized digital health, wellness, and evidence-based weight loss services, all underpinned by community engagement. The New York-based company emphasized this evolution in its official statement.
During her tenure, Mindy Grossman repositioned the brand to reflect contemporary consumer preferences for integrated wellness solutions, transforming the company’s positioning from a legacy weight loss brand to a modern science-driven technology platform. Her leadership has shaped WW International’s trajectory as it continues to serve its user base through digital-first innovations.
The transition will proceed in an orderly fashion, with Grossman remaining engaged to ensure continuity until a replacement is identified and ready to assume the role.
