It’s been just over a year since Bob Iger returned to The Walt Disney Company as CEO.
When he returned, he made it clear that his leadership within the company wouldn’t last forever. However, he did promise that he would be involved in the search and training of his successor — the person who would take over as CEO after Bob Iger’s (updated) contract ends in 2026. Bob Iger’s successor is a major concern not only for Disney fans, but for company stakeholders and investors in The Walt Disney brand. Well, media executives are now chiming in with their predictions for who they think the successor could be.
