Her grandmother gave her a single share of Disney stock in 2008. That started a passion for Cori Borgstadt. Now 18, she never misses a Disney shareholder meeting.
Cori Borgstadt started attending Disney shareholder meetings in 2008 and has asked Iger: What advice would you give to ‘a kid who wants your job’?Caitlin OHara for The Wall Street JournalChief Executive Robert Iger has said his top priority is finding his replacement within two years.
Her questions over the years have ranged from fan concerns such as whether or not Mack, the big-rig truck from the Pixar movie “Cars,” would appear in the sequel to more sophisticated inquiries about Disney’s strategy for its coming slate of animated features . At that first meeting in Albuquerque, Cori and Austin spent most of their time playing in the convention-center lobby with costumed characters representing Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto and the princess Giselle from “Enchanted.”
Cori is the second of three children adopted from China and Taiwan—she is from China—by Jan and her husband, Todd. She grew up in a quiet subdivision of nearly identical, one-story tan houses in the Phoenix suburbs, where limited edition Disney DVD box sets line the shelves of the family room and framed original Disney animation cels hang on the dining nook’s walls.
“I remember you. We talked about summer camp once, didn’t we?” Mr. Iger asked. They had, two years before in Portland, Ore. Cori wanted to know why Disney didn’t offer summer camps for children. Mr. Iger had told her the camps were a good idea but might be hard to run as a business. As for lunch, he said, “We can negotiate that.” A few minutes later, he sounded regretful at having rejected the meeting. “I don’t know, I sound mean,” he said, before moving on to the next question.
