Apple & Disney Succession & Battling Winter Sick Season 01/02/25

Happy New Year! 2025 brings executive turnover to multiple corporate teams, including Apple, which is replacing its CFO, and Disney, where Morgan Stanley’s James Gorman is helping find a successor to Bob Iger. Dartmouth Tuck School of Business professor Paul Argenti weighs the succession plans at both companies. And this January, we’re in the thick of cold, flu, RSV, and norovirus; former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb discusses the uptick in illness this winter, as well as potential changes to the U.S. healthcare system. Plus, New York’s congestion pricing looms, and deadly incidents in New Orleans and Las Vegas prompted security concerns on New Year's Day.
