About this episode
CNBC’s Alex Sherman reports on the inside story of a CEO succession plan gone awry at Disney — a cautionary tale of how good intentions clashed with ego and hubris at the highest levels of corporate America. Sherman spoke with more than two dozen people who worked closely with Disney’s last two CEOs, Bob Iger and Bob Chapek, between 2020 and 2022. His report features many never-before reported details about Chapek’s tenure, how and why he was fired, and Iger’s plan to revive Disney now that he’s CEO once again. Stick around for a special interview with CNBC’s DJ Sixsmith on Sherman’s in-depth story about Disney’s succession drama.
