Uber's next CEO inherits a board at war and a combative ex-CEO

Uber has had their fair share of press, both good and bad. Former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick delivers a speech in London on October 3, 2014. SAN FRANCISCO -- Is this Uber, the ride-hailing company -- or Uber, the prime-time melodrama? Lawsuits, board infighting and an inability to land its next CEO have created a swirl of corporate intrigue only rivaled in its intensity by its former break-neck growth. Behind the bitter public spats over who will run and control the company, lies this possibility: investors and its pugilistic ex-CEO may be fighting over a shadow of its former self.
