Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal to Take a Few Weeks of Parental Leave

Twitter Inc.’s new Chief Executive Parag Agrawal is planning to take a few weeks of paternity leave, a move that comes shortly after he took over the social-media company late last year.

Mr. Agrawal and his wife are expecting their second child soon, a Twitter spokeswoman said. Mr. Agrawal plans to be connected with Twitter’s executive team during his few weeks of leave, she said, adding that the company won’t name an interim CEO.
