Biography & Autobiography. Business. Performing Arts. Nonfiction. HTML:#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ? A memoir of leadership and success: The CEO of Disney, Time??s 2019 businessperson of the year, shares the ideas and values he embraced while reinventing one of the world??s most beloved companies and inspiring the people who bring the magic to life.
ONE OF NPR??S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR
Robert Iger became CEO of The Walt Disney Company in 2005, during a difficult time. Competition was more intense than ever and technology was changing faster than at any time in the company??s history. His vision came down to three clear ideas: Recommit to the concept that quality matters, embrace technology instead of fighting it, and think bigger??think global??and turn Disney into a stronger brand in international markets.
Today, Disney is the largest, most admired media company in the world, counting Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 21st Century Fox among its properties. Under Iger??s leadership, Disney??s value grew nearly five times what it was, making Iger one of the most innovating and successful CEOs of our era.
In The Ride of a Lifetime, Robert Iger shares the lessons he learned while running Disney and leading its 220,000-plus employees, and he explores the principles that are necessary for true leadership, including:
? Optimism. Even in the face of difficulty, an optimistic leader will find the path toward the best possible outcome and focus on that, rather than give in to pessimism and blaming.
? Courage. Leaders have to be willing to take risks and place big bets. Fear of failure destroys creativity.
? Decisiveness. All decisions, no matter how difficult, can be made on a timely basis. Indecisiveness is both wasteful and destructive to morale.
? Fairness. Treat people decently, with empathy, and be accessible to them.
This book is about the relentless curiosity that has driven Iger since the day he started as the lowliest studio grunt at ABC. It??s also about thoughtfulness and respect, and a decency-over-dollars approach that has become the bedrock of every project and partnership Iger pursues, from a deep friendship with Steve Jobs in his final years to an abiding love of the Star Wars mythology.
 
??The ideas in this book strike me as universal? Iger writes. ??Not just to the aspiring CEOs of the world, but to anyone wanting to feel less fearful, more confidently themselves, as they navig

It’s good fun.

Lots of curated stories of a business leader who had a long and exciting career. Yes, I ignored all the advice and lessons. I was more interested in how an outsider of Hollywood managed the biggest media company of the world, made so much of big acquisitions and changed the perception. I got enough bang for my buck. ( )

An interesting look from the perspective of a top level CEO. ( )

A fascinating read about an amazing career, with some great leadership challenges and learnings. ( )

A A fun, insightful look at corporate deal making in acquisitions

For anyone who has ever wondered how the deals Disney made for Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and Fox came about. Also for anyone who does lead or hopes to lead groups of people. ( )

I thoroughly enjoyed the author’s memoir concerning his tenure at ABC’s Wild World of Sports, then ABC entertainment, the merger with Disney followed by Disney’s acquisition of Pixar, Marvel and Lucas films just to name a few. It provided an inside look at the mechanics of the industry and the art of negotiation.
Mr. Iger also includes insightful leadership qualities a business person might adopt. ( )
