具体描述

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.”

##之前已经看过《迪斯尼战争》,讲到艾格接班前,回忆录有提到这本书(艾格认为很多地方不准确),我当时就觉得让艾格接班有些不可思议,因为他并没跟艾斯纳撇清关系,这本书也讲了接班的痛苦过程。不过接班后的一些列内外部改革举措真的是很成功,搞好跟乔布斯关系然后收购皮克斯、把战略部缩减并改变功能、之后又收购漫威和卢卡斯影业,这些实际上是建立在他对迪士尼业务本质理解的基础上,那就是IP是迪士尼所有业务的引擎。艾格有总结艾斯纳第一个十年成功的原因,《迪斯尼战争》也有写,分别是提高乐园门票、加建乐园内酒店、发行经典影视的录像带,这本质就是老IP的运营和变现。而艾格更进一步,他收来其他经典IP进行运营和变现,取得了更大的成功,迪士尼是全球IP运营管理最厉害的公司。后面迪士尼、奈飞、苹果在流媒体的竞争值得关注。

##作为迪士尼的粉丝和前员工 很快就读完了这本书。怎么说呢 把战略解释得很清楚 4个并购案的细节也有很多描述。但真的像个新闻稿一样 其实是比较四平八稳的。一些他其实爱憎分明的人都前后找补得礼貌有佳 各种respectable. 其实个人更想看到一些他是如何克服职业生涯里的种种困难的,但是如此看来他的solution is to acquire more IPs.但这其实也是我觉得迪士尼应该重视起来的危机--除掉收购来的IP, Disney Studio本身还有多少竞争力?

##顶级职业经理人的自我修养。

评分

##最惊讶的地方是他和jobs的友谊,因为两个人性格截然不同,经历也很不同,一个勤勤恳恳爬corporate ladder,一个revolutionary。而且苹果迪士尼两个公司也很不一样。当他说假如jobs还活着,说不定两个公司已经合并了,我简直无法想象。disney+apple tv+?George Lucas也是挺令人无语的,几个million卖了公司,还梦想继续有话语权,还抱怨,have a cake and eat it,真是吃相挺难看。我不关注MCU的东西,但是收购marvel真是个巩固了迪士尼下一百年统治地位的决策。

##Don’t let ambition get ahead of opportunity. 2020的第一课。

##非常值得读的Disney CEO的自传。说是传记,其实作者还是想通过自己的职业生涯来表达对管理者的理解,反正我看完了很想买Disney的股票,可惜人家2021年要退休了。另外,成功者真的很擅长找到关键点,哪怕是一个巨复杂的事情,也可以找到突破的最重要三个点。比如作者为Disney找到的三个最重要的事情是:优质的内容,持续的科技投入,全球化扩张。(当然,也有可能是后面成功之后再总结的)这种聚焦很能帮助人在各种选择中找到方向。

评分

##很好看,超五星好评!是我觉得可以反复阅读的书,对于如何做人做事都很有启发。从文字来看,会觉得作者(CEO先生)是一位非常有风度教养的人,是一个非常好的管理者。其实对于abc,迪士尼,皮克斯的了解都不多,也没关注过他们的时事新闻????,如果能对照着看可能会更有意思吧。从abc的最底层做起,这辈子没换过公司工作????,(abc被迪士尼收购),真是很传奇的人生啊。以及ceo是不是都每天只能睡四个小时????……从竞争上岗ceo开始,还有和乔布斯的往来互动,都是高潮迭起呀!看得很爽!Iger真的对迪士尼的业务和公司的经营模式理解的非常深入,所以对公司的发展才能有那么好的规划,收购皮克斯和漫威真的是很厉害的两步棋。敏锐的商业眼光,是结合了对公司的了解和行业发展的判断+相信自己的直觉和敢于冒险的勇气

评分

##因为中文封面上的那个“批量打造IP”被击退去看的英文版的决定是正确的!因为书里压根不是在讲这个!只有国内骗钱的书封才会这么写吧!总体因为行业的关系看得十分顺畅,没有假大空的“成功学”,也十分能感受到Bob的人格魅力,以及如果他诚如书中所描述,那他的确是个难得的好领导。其实整本书最打动我的不是迪士尼帝国崛起多么的恢弘激动人心,而是他和乔布斯的友谊,在乔布斯葬礼那段话我看哭了;其实整本书因为是自传回忆录,总会时不时穿插他非常尊重的前上级等等,讲真很难判断这些褒奖是否有吹捧的嫌疑,但是唯独每每提及乔布斯,都是那种令人毋庸置疑的,只有放在心上的挚友才会有的那种语气。羡慕这样成年人的友谊,准备去看乔布斯传。

评分

##他的工作资历还是很传奇的,一定是有很多的人格魅力才能与这么多人合作成功。真诚不妥协,persistent。书很好地让人理解了家里的Disney plus为什么有pixel动画,星战,Marvel,national geographic。
