Walt Disney has revamped its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs to prioritize business outcomes while promoting a work environment that fosters employee success. The company joins several major US businesses in scaling back their initiatives. A memo obtained by Reuters reveals the changes aim to improve executive compensation by evaluating leaders’ alignment with Disney’s values. The shift focuses on key areas such as storytelling, creativity, and synergy. Despite this change, Disney remains committed to creating an inclusive workplace where all employees feel welcome. This move follows Amazon.com’s decision to remove references to “inclusion and diversity” from its annual report after winding down its programs.
