The longer he stays... the further the decline will be.
I just cant stand so many talented people being let go. Films and shows deteriorate, Revenue drops, profitability plummets...all the while, management goes on with raises and shares of stock. Something from the late days of Rome, like does Iger have a horse thing or know how to play the violin when fires are close?
Just not sure his vision is sound on this one. It's hard for anyone to look at their life's work with honesty... that self-assessment is even more difficult for an ego. Ego drives you to do great things. But, its not serving him or us in this moment. Can we draft a new CEO this season? Maybe give radical democracy a go?
How about a new TV show called 'The Pasture'.... it could have Tom Brady, Bob Iger, and one of the GE CEOs.... The show follows the arc of high powered retirees transitioning from being one of the most important people in their heyday, to their current position of not being good enough anymore, and finally through their crippling depression as they lose their position.... Viewers then follow them through that crippling depression to what they rediscover as meaning on the other side.
