## Resource

In this episode of PodCrash, Matt Ebert sits down with former Marvel CEO Peter Cuneo, the executive credited with helping turn Marvel around when the company was on the brink of collapse. Cuneo shares the leadership decisions that helped stabilize the company, rebuild its strategy, and set the foundation for what would eventually become one of the most valuable entertainment brands in the world. They talk about what it’s really like to step into a struggling company, how leaders make tough decisions when everything is on the line, and why discipline, focus, and culture matter more than flashy ideas when rebuilding a business. Cuneo also reflects on the lessons he learned guiding Marvel through its turnaround and what leaders can take from that experience when trying to rescue or grow a company today.
