In what was seen in some quarters as a surprising decision, Disney CEO Bob Chapek has had the remaining 9 months left on his contract extended by three years by the Disney Board in a unanimous decision, a vote of confidence that should serve him well.
“Disney was dealt a tough hand by the pandemic, yet with Bob at the helm, our businesses — from parks to streaming — not only weathered the storm, but emerged in a position of strength,” said Chairman Susan Arnold. “In this important time of growth and transformation, the Board is committed to keeping Disney on the successful path it is on today, and Bob’s leadership is key to achieving that goal. Bob is the right leader at the right time for The Walt Disney Company, and the Board has full confidence in him and his leadership team.”
