Sounds like Bob C gets to take home a set of steak knives.

"Bob Chapek has demonstrated remarkable leadership in the face of unprecedented challenges that were unimaginable when he became CEO just seven weeks ago," said Susan Arnold, independent lead director of the Disney board, and Bob Iger, executive chairman and chairman of the board, in a joint statement.

Sorry for the sarcastic take but ...

I suppose they ran out of time in the phone interview, or whatever they did, before Sue and Bob could list some of his remarkable leadership achievements. Or the typist writing up the press release ran out of paper or something.

Poor guy it must suck to be damned with faint praise in the national media.

Poor guy is desperate for someone to think he’s someone.

Well... both Trump and Newsom asked him to be on their special task forces.

Interestingly, Iger quit both in protest.

Oh I didn’t know he was on Trumps task force. Interesting.

Yeah, economic advisors. Most quit over how they felt Trump handled the Charlottesville protest. Iger claimed it was over climate issues. And then the board just fell apart and was no more.

Maybe he can fix those non-descript mountains in Colorado, or wherever.

More timeless, more American!

Who’s gonna tell that used car salesman chapek what to do??

 

[HauntedPirate]

Yes. I think Iger and Chapek actually replaced those old, antiquated "Four Keys" with ones more suited to today's modern Disney corporation:

Per-Guest Spending
Profit Margin
Cost Containment
Bonuses
Synergy & Merchandising
