I haven't been here for a long time, so I was just wondering, who's the new CEo of Disney? There is a new one right?

Who, What & When

Bob Iger is slated for take over in Sept. '05. However, Save Disney, a.k.a. Roy Disney and Stanley Gold, now have a go ahead with their suit to seek the ability to present an alternate slate of Directors for election. Presumably to elect a different CEO. They maintain the Directors were misleading in statements made that an extensive and fair search would be conducted in naming a successor to Michael Eisner.

Correct...Bob Iger

As a matter of fact, I was hiding in a hole. Not too long ago, they pulled me out of it, shined a flashlight in my face and shaved my thick beard. I asked them, "Who's the new CEO of Disney?" And they say nothing, but instead topple my beautiful statue. I repeat, "Who's the new CEO?" and they ignore me as if I'm some sort of tyrannical leader.

Bob Iger, and so far, he seems to be on the right track. I think that they should have term limits. They all start out great and then sway over to the "dark side."

I know some of what has happened to Disney through the years, but there is one thing that I just haven't really grasped on........What was the big problem with Ron Miller?

I think that happens about the time they stop thinking about what's best for the company and start thinking about their "legacy". That's the downfall of many people in power, when they become more concerned about how history will view them as opposed to doing the job at the time.

I know little about Iger, he seems like a good egg at first blush. We'll see what the last half of the decade brings.
