About Bob Iger
Robert Allen Iger served as CEO of The Walt Disney Company from 2005 to 2020, and returned as CEO in 2022. Under his leadership, Disney made transformative acquisitions including Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 21st Century Fox. He is widely regarded as one of the most successful corporate leaders of his generation.
Iger believes that true leadership requires optimism, courage, and a relentless pursuit of excellence — that leaders must embrace change and innovation rather than fear it, and that the quality of any endeavor is determined by the integrity and values behind it.
"The riskiest thing we can do is just maintain the status quo."
"Optimism. One of the most important qualities of a good leader is optimism, a pragmatic enthusiasm for what can be achieved."
"You have to approach your own mortality with a little bit of perspective."
