Iger faces many challenges on the road ahead
The New York Times has a piece on Bob Iger, current President and future CEO of the Walt Disney Company, and the challenges he faces in the wake of Eisner’s destructive tendancies. The story lists three major hurdles for Iger: fixing the relationship with Pixar, fixing the mess in his own animation house, and shepherding overseas expansion.
I would add to that: restore the Disney Themepark Magic as the top quality destination for vacations, fix the mess left by the Disney Store debacle, make the WDC the leader in family entertainment again (movies, television programming, other venutes), and join the Web 2.0 conversation.
