Bob Iger is stepping down as CEO of Disney, with parks chief Josh D’Amaro set to succeed him in March, marking a significant leadership transition for the company.
Activist investor questions whether the selection of parks chief Josh D’Amaro as chief executive will allow Iger to stay around
Josh D’Amaro will be the ninth person to lead Disney in the company’s 102-year history.
Disney’s board is planning to meet next week, where it is expected to vote on a new CEO.
Shareholders will be looking for D’Amaro to generate value after the company has underperformed the broader stock market.
