具體描述

Robert Iger is chairman and CEO of The Walt Disney Company. He previously served as president and CEO, beginning in October 2005, and was president and COO from 2000 to 2005. Iger began his career at ABC in 1974, and as chairman of the ABC Group he oversaw the broadcast television network and station group, managed the cable television properties, and guided the merger between Capital Cities/ABC, Inc., and The Walt Disney Company. Iger officially joined the Disney senior management team in 1996 as chairman of the Disney-owned ABC Group and in 1999 was given the additional responsibility of president, Walt Disney International. In that role, Iger expanded Disney’s presence outside of the United States, establishing the blueprint for the company’s international growth today.

A grand vision defined: The CEO of Disney, one of Time’s most influential people of 2019, shares the ideas and values he embraced to reinvent one of the most beloved companies in the world and inspire the people who bring the magic to life.

Robert Iger became CEO of The Walt Disney Company in 2005, during a difficult time. Competition was more intense than ever and technology was changing faster than at any time in the company’s history. His vision came down to three clear ideas: Recommit to the concept that quality matters, embrace technology instead of fighting it, and think bigger—think global—and turn Disney into a stronger brand in international markets.

Twelve years later, Disney is the largest, most respected media company in the world, counting Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 21st Century Fox among its properties. Its value is nearly five times what it was when Iger took over, and he is recognized as one of the most innovative and successful CEOs of our era.

In The Ride of a Lifetime, Robert Iger shares the lessons he’s learned while running Disney and leading its 200,000 employees, and he explores the principles that are necessary for true leadership, including:

• Optimism. Even in the face of difficulty, an optimistic leader will find the path toward the best possible outcome and focus on that, rather than give in to pessimism and blaming.

• Courage. Leaders have to be willing to take risks and place big bets. Fear of failure destroys creativity.

• Decisiveness. All decisions, no matter how difficult, can be made on a timely basis. Indecisiveness is both wasteful and destructive to morale.

• Fairness. Treat people decently, with empathy, and be accessible to them.

This book is about the relentless curiosity that has driven Iger for forty-five years, since the day he started as the lowliest studio grunt at ABC. It’s also about thoughtfulness and respect, and a decency-over-dollars approach that has become the bedrock of every project and partnership Iger pursues, from a deep friendship with Steve Jobs in his final years to an abiding love of the Star Wars mythology.

“The ideas in this book strike me as universal” Iger writes. “Not just to the aspiring CEOs of the world, but to anyone wanting to feel less fearful, more confidently themselves, as they navigate their professional and even personal lives.”

##Pete是神,Bob隻能說是一個長得不賴的高級打工仔。全書略囉嗦,沒有太多新聞之外的內容,感覺更像是為Disney direct-to-consumer new strategy的文宣。

飛杭州的飛機上讀完第一遍。這本書在個人成長,公司管理,談判並購三個方麵都提供瞭非常好的典範。很少有讀職業經理人寫的書這麼有感觸的。艾格從實習生到迪斯尼的首席執行官,無疑得益於他一係列優秀的個人品質。如果作為董事會成員,又何曾不希望公司是掌管在這樣的人手裏呢...

《一生的旅程》是國際版權市場的熱門圖書,早在2018年就已經開始瞭爭搶。當時作者尚未動筆,僅憑一份內容簡介便引發瞭全球版權大戰。最終,一番鐵馬金戈,簡體中文版權花落讀客。 2019年9月,我們終於拿到英文全文,立馬著手翻譯,啓動齣版流程。 在國外評分網站Goodreads上,...

##差不多花瞭20小時讀完的英文原版。相較於常見的創始人視角的商業傳記,本書更像《杜拉拉升職記》,心理描述非常坦誠以至於刷新瞭我對傳記的認識。本書前一半在做鋪墊,後一半大戲纔緩緩揭幕,最精彩的一幕當屬皮剋斯的收購。讓我學到的是:1)追求極緻往往有意想不到的好結果,要敢於變革和創新。2)厲害的人能夠把問題簡化而不是相反。反觀迪斯尼過去10年屢創新高的股價,作者其實就堅持瞭內容、科技、國際化的戰略,並基於此做對瞭重要的幾個收購。3)決策到瞭關鍵時刻也憑藉直覺,談判到瞭關鍵時刻講的是人情。在皮剋斯的收購中,作者多次提到瞭和喬布斯的私交起瞭關鍵的作用。做大事有些時候歸根結底還是做人。
