Iger said he would be 'implementing organizational and operating changes' within the company over the next few weeks.
In a note to Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution employees Monday, Iger said he would be “implementing organizational and operating changes” within the company over the next few weeks. This most directly impacts the group organized under Daniel.
“I’ve asked Dana Walden, Alan Bergman, Jimmy Pitaro, and Christine McCarthy to work together on the design of a new structure that puts more decision-making back in the hands of our creative teams and rationalizes costs, and this will necessitate a reorganization of Disney Media & Entertainment Distribution.
“Our goal is to have the new structure in place in the coming months. Without question, elements of DMED will remain, but I fundamentally believe that storytelling is what fuels this company, and it belongs at the center of how we organize our businesses,” he continued.
