The Ride of a Lifetime: Lessons Learned from 15 Years as CEO of the Walt Disney Company

The Ride of a Lifetime by Robert Iger, former CEO of Disney, shares how he transformed the company into the world’s leading media giant. Taking over in 2005, Iger focused on three big ideas: quality, technology, and global growth—leading to major acquisitions like Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 21st Century Fox.

Iger highlights four key leadership lessons:

• Optimism – focus on solutions, not problems.

• Courage – take risks and embrace creativity.

• Decisiveness – act quickly and clearly.

• Fairness – treat people with respect and empathy.

A blend of business strategy and personal wisdom, it’s a powerful guide for leaders at any stage.
