Superhero Leadership

Peter Cuneo has spent more than four decades in the C-suite, leading seven corporate turnarounds and a decade at the helm of Marvel Entertainment, steering it from near-bankruptcy to a $4.5 billion sale to Disney.

In Superhero Leadership, Cuneo distills the 28 principles that define truly extraordinary leadership. Each chapter pairs a hard-won insight with the real moments that forged it: from the bridge of a Navy destroyer off the coast of Vietnam, to the boardrooms of Clairol, Black & Decker, Remington, and Marvel.

Written with Joe Garner, the book covers organizational culture, crisis response, values-driven decision-making, and the kind of personal resilience that turns adversity into transformation.

Equal parts memoir and leadership manual, Superhero Leadership is an indispensable guide for anyone who aspires to lead with courage, clarity, and purpose.

Joe Garner partnered with acclaimed business leader Peter Cuneo to develop Superhero Leadership, a multimedia platform built around Cuneo's hard-earned lessons from leading seven corporate turnarounds, including Marvel Entertainment's transformation from bankruptcy to its $4.5 billion acquisition by Disney.

As creator and producer of the Superhero Leadership podcast, Garner helped shape a series that explores leadership through conversations with accomplished executives, entrepreneurs, military leaders, and innovators. The podcast translates real-world leadership experience into practical insights for leaders facing today's complex challenges.

Garner also collaborated with Cuneo on Superhero Leadership: 28 Ways to Lead with Courage, Strength, and Compassion, published by Skyhorse/Peakpoint Press. The book distills decades of leadership experience into a practical framework for leading organizations through uncertainty, change, and growth.
