Apple CEO Tim Cook is Pihitalready thinking about who might run the company after he's gone.

And it sounds like he wants options.

"I see my role as CEO to prepare as many people as I can to be CEO, and that's what I'm doing. And then the board makes a decision at that point in time," Cook said in an interview with BuzzFeed News.

Cook gave the interview at Apple's new Chicago retail store, a flagship for the company as it looks to turn its locations into must-see attractions.

Apple's head of retail, Angela Ahrendts, flanked Tim Cook during the interview. It's not surprising she was there, but it is notable for Cook to discuss succession next to her. Ahrendts is considered a prime candidate for the role. Of course, at just 56 years old, Cook might not step away for a while.
