Bob Iger to be an Advisor to Donald Trump

As the newly-elected President Donald Trump continues to assemble his staff, he announced today that he is creating a Strategic and Policy Forum made up of some the top business leaders from around the country.  Members of this Forum will use their unique vantage point to help the President and his staff gain insight in how new government policies will affect things such as: economic growth, job creation and productivity.  Trump’s policy has been to “Make America Great Again” and that will start by helping American companies to thrive and make work at home.

Among the members to this new Forum will be business powerhouses such as: Mary Barra of GM, Doug McMillon of Wal-Mart, Ginni Rometty of IBM and our very own Bob Iger, Chairman and CEO of the Walt Disney Company.

The release today stated that the purpose of the group is to provide direct input to the president “in a frank, non-bureaucratic, and non-partisan manner.”

“This forum brings together CEOs and business leaders who know what it takes to create jobs and drive economic growth,” says Trump. “My administration is committed to drawing on private sector expertise and cutting the government red tape that is holding back our businesses from hiring, innovating and expanding right here in America.”

It only makes sense to include Iger seeing as Disney is one of the biggest if not the biggest entertainment company on the planet and will probably be very useful in helping the economy to go in the right direction.

My name is Ziggy and I love Disney, everything Disney! I grew up on Disney and it has and continues to be a huge part of my life. I started young when my parents took me to Disney World when I was 18 months old. Little did they know that would be the first of an uncountable number of trips we would take. I have so many amazing memories going to Disney with my family and friends and it has been interwoven into my DNA.
