Iger has never shied away from a challenge. At a time when competition was more intense than ever and technology was changing faster than at any time in the company’s history, he doubled down and recommitted to Disney’s core values, leading it to become one of the world’s largest and most admired media and entertainment companies. Now, he shares his insights with audiences in a presentation format that informs, inspires and delights.
