Neither one of those, Jobs has almost as massive of an ego as Eisner. Although I love his passion and work ethic. But I think in the end he'd drive himself and everyone crazy.

Roy Disney is just a family fixture, I believe he wants to carry on his Uncle Walts dream but I don't think he has the management skills and drive to lead a Fortune 100 company with 60 billion in earnings.

I'm not sure who I'd want, I used to like Jeff Katzenburg but now he's running Dreamworks and having way too much success on his own. I don't want some expert management CEO, I want a person with a vision and who believes in Walt's ideas and principles.

Thanks for the thread. I don't have anything to offer other than that there are rumors that Roger Iger is a candidate. There was a guy at Comcast whom has Disney experience too, but his name escapes me.

I'd like to see Steve Jobs. He seems like he appreciates his employees and the hard work they do....just like Walt Disney did.

Eisner has endorsed Robert Iger.

Iger would be my vote. I think Disney would be in trouble with either Roy or Jobs.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Kerry??
