The Ride of a Lifetime

Bob Iger recounts his fifteen years leading the Walt Disney Company, from steadying a troubled business to acquiring Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and Fox. Part memoir, part leadership manual, he distils the principles, optimism, courage, decisiveness, fairness, that guided some of the biggest bets in entertainment. Candid about pressure and risk, it’s a readable insider account of running a creative empire and the values that made it work.
