The magical world of Disney, beloved for its enchanting Disney princesses, captivating Disney fairytale treasures, and timeless classics is currently undergoing a Disney revolution. This revolution is not only transforming the way Disney operates but also raising essential questions about the company’s values and priorities.

It’s not the first time that the Walt Disney World brand has come under the microscope for its modern changes to digital property. Snow White and all the associated controversy is one example, with the “woke” wars with DeSantis being another. Yet while CEO Bob Iger spoke about the values of the Walt Disney Company, the word “revolution” is a major statement that the company just released.

At the core of this Disney revolution is a pursuit of “finding new angles.” The declaration’s source is Henry Wong, the Principal Architect of Data Science at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort.

His journey, much like a classic Disney fairytale, mirrors the potential of a classic Walt Disney story and is meant to inspire. According to Wong, it’s to “push the limits” in order to enhance outcomes. While innovation is positive, Wong also offers a glimpse into Disney’s evolving landscape.

Disney’s emphasis on career growth and development for its employees, a hallmark of the Disney revolution, may seem commendable. Yet, it prompts us to ponder whether this emphasis comes at the expense of Disney’s core creative values.

Are employees being guided towards roles aligned with Disney’s technology-driven agenda rather than their artistic or creative passions?

The Call to Stay Curious and Ask Questions

Henry’s advice to “stay curious and ask questions” should be heeded not just in the magical realm of Disney but also in our own lives, particularly when it comes to personal information and targeted advertising.

As the Disney revolution unfolds, it is essential for the public to remain vigilant and question how this revolution affects the heart of Disney’s identity.
