Tras dos años de gestión, la compañía informó la destitución de Chapek y anunció la vuelta de Iger, quien fue su CEO durante 15 años, quintuplicando la capitalización de la compañía en el mercado durante ese periodo.

Iger has agreed to serve as Disney’s CEO for two years, with a mandate from the Board to set the strategic direction for renewed growth and work closely with it to develop a successor to lead the company.

CEO Bob Chapek and other company executives will receive a salary cut, and Executive Chairman Bob Iger will go without his entire salary. With halted productions and closed themed parks in North America and Paris, Moffett Nathanson estimated that Disney will take a revenue hit of $3.4 billion in 2020.

The executive will be replaced by Bob Chapek, who has most recently served as chairman of Disney’s parks business. Iger will take on the role of Executive Chairman to ensure a smooth transition through the end of his contract on Dec. 31, 2021.

Bob Chapek fue nombrado CEO con efecto inmediato. Iger asume el papel de presidente ejecutivo y ayudará a guiar a la junta directiva de la compañía a través de la transición de liderazgo hasta el final de su contrato el 31 de diciembre de 2021.
