A Disney director for the past seven-years and Executive Chairman of Nike as well, he will succeed Susan E. Arnold, who will not stand for re-election pursuant to the 15-year term limit under Disney’s Board Tenure Policy. As a result, the size of the Board will be reduced to 11 members.
Disney’s statement:
