“Let’s say Disney continues to muddle along under [Disney CEO Robert] Iger as it did in the late Eisner years. Shareholders and observers will begin to note that having Iger run the company while Steve Jobs sits on the board is like having Michael Jordan (the basketball player) on the bench while Will Perdue is tossing up bricks. One of the biggest issues Disney faces is how to cope with the digitalization of the media. No one has done a better job than Jobs in helping established companies and industries cash in digitalization. So, there is little doubt Jobs will be a goad to Iger.”
