Apple’s board members are also set to begin deliberations on the matter at the end of the week.

In its statement, Cook said,

We hope that the board will work diligently to address the board's concerns and to provide a new direction as Apple continues to innovate and grow rapidly.

The company's board of directors, including Cook, will meet at 1 a.m. Monday, April 25 to discuss the company's future and to consider a number of potential changes.

The CEO, who has held the title since 2011, has been a strong advocate for the company's growth since its earliest days. In a 2015 interview with CNET , the CEO said, “He always wanted to make sure our customers were not left out. He wanted to make sure that the products we put out are available to everyone."

The decision to keep Ahrendts, who is a self-employed engineer, and the board of directors will be made by Cook, according to sources familiar with the matter.

According to a statement from Apple’s board of directors, Ahrendts was a key catalyst behind Apple's transformation of its customer base, making it the leading brand in the online shopping and e-commerce sector. And she told CNET earlier this year that Apple is "very much looking at the future and the future of its brand," adding that Apple "has been committed to bringing people back to their homes and into this new world that we're creating."

The announcement comes in the midst of the new Apple Store, which debuted in June .

Apple's new retail store is expected to be the first step in a process of rebranding Apple Stores , which were purchased by Wal-Mart Stores Inc. in early 2017 . The move comes after Apple purchased the U.S. retailer for $1.1 billion in May.

Apple's first retail store in the U.S. will launch in October, followed by the U.K.'s, which will begin opening at the end of February.

Apple stores will be open from 4 p.m. to 10 a.m. at the new Apple Stores in April.Sometime in the middle of December, when the United States officially started sending in troops to northern Iraq, there was a sudden and unexpected news: a U.S.-led airstrike on the town of Azaz. According to a U.S. air strike official, the U.S. military was trying to send a bomb to the village.
