Although Eisner was able to revolutionize the company largely because it was in shambles when he took over, Iger has mostly stayed true to the course and has taken relatively few big moves. His one big legacy item will always be the Marvel acquisition, but when viewed in the framework of his stock buyback program, it was simply investing that same money in a different company instead of Disney. While Eisner continued to broaden the definition of what "Disney" meant, it seems like Iger has continually reduced the company's reach to a group of brands that can be synergized at every opportunity. He sort of seems like a great manager holding down the fort, rather than a visionary leader trying to take over the world
