Disney taps new parks & experiences chair
Thomas Mazloum was appointed chair of Disney's Parks and Experiences division, signaling a possible shift in labor optimization strategies.
Mazloum's appointment follows Josh D'Amaro's tenure, who held the position since May 2020. D'Amaro will now focus on advocacy for the parks and resorts segment. The change in leadership suggests Disney might be looking to refresh its approach to operational efficiency, especially concerning labor. Mazloum's background could signal an openness to new strategies in workforce management. Disney's Parks, Experiences and Products segment reported $8.39 billion in revenue for the quarter ending December 30, 2023. Labor costs are a significant portion of that, making optimization a key area for potential savings and improved profitability.
