Kaz has done great jobs bringing Sony back from red. I respect him.
I also found that Kenichiro Yoshida is the person who make sony keep TV and Smartphone business (src: businessinsider) . Looking forward to sony in the upcoming year

Who's replacing Totoki?
I respect Kaz so much. He was a great man and still is and will always be. I'm glad he's the chairman now. Hope the new executives will do much better. 2018 should be a gamechanging year for Sony. I hope someday when Sony has a lot of profits like what they used to be, they will bring VAIO back.

I think officer in charge and President and CEO are different. But yeah, maybe it's him.
Sony's board of executives have at least 2 or 3 positions, based on what's in their website.
Just let me be one of their executives, seems like they're running out of them lol.

Sony's Q3 FY17 financial results are released!
They sold 4 million phones in in the quarter.
Overall Profit for FY 2017 is at about 4.5 bln $, about 1012% increase from FY 2016 and Q3 profit is at 2.8 bln $ (1407% increase from Q3 2016). A great year for Sony. But not so much for its mobile division.
