Executive incubator program and creative talent development program designed to engage the next generation of creative executives from underrepresented backgrounds
Heroes Work Here, an initiative to hire, train and support U.S. military veterans
Over 100 employee-led groups, which represent and support the diverse communities that make up our global workforce
Innovative learning opportunities, which spark dialogue among employees, leaders, Disney talent and external experts
The Disney Look appearance guidelines, which were updated to cultivate a more inclusive environment that encourages and celebrates authentic expressions of belonging among employees
Established six pillars that serve as the foundation for our D&I commitments — transparency, accountability, representation, content, community, and culture
