Part B
Introduction
Executive leadership refers to the ability to management of employees and guide individuals and
oversee different business activities such as fulfilling organisational goals, developing strategic
plans, and making decisions. Effective corporate governance and risk management are highly
required for Disney as in the volatile market the entertainment company has faced several risks
and effective corporate governance within the organisation helps in overcoming these risks. The
deployment of a balanced scorecard will help in identifying different organisational goals as well
as objectives and efficient leaders may support in executing desirable plans for achieving these
goals as well as objectives. On the other hand, the financial leadership of the company will
portray the way existing leaders are mitigating different financial challenges for the company in
the highly competitive business scenario. In this section, the current leadership and management
style of Disney will be discussed as the way effective leadership supports managing financial
performance despite the loss of Disney. Apart from that, the ethical leadership of the
entertainment company has been evaluated and the way ethical leaders help in managing
environmental issues with effective decision-making while recommendations on one of the
current issues within the company may help in improving the performance in the future.
Leadership and management style of Disney
Effective management and personal ability of the leadership have contributed enough in order to
establish a successful maintenance of the renowned entertainment company, Disney and through
effective good personal management has assisted in building Disney, an entertainment industry
empire. Disney CEO Robert A. Iger is considered a successful and effective leader who has
contributed to the growth and improvement of the company through imagination, creativity,
credibility, focus, decision-making prowess, honesty and with an optimistic outlook. The
improvement of visions and strategy to optimum effectiveness and efficiency has been
significantly contributed by the style of the leadership and management of Disney. A visionary leadership style has been followed by Disney which has installed few upper-hand
benefits to the firm and contributed to constructing Disney as the most well-known and highly
admirable as well as respectable corporation in the industry of global entertainment. Visionary
leadership style assists in innovating and experimenting and allows taking calculated risks in
order to enhance the prowess of the employees of the company
(Michiganstateuniversityonline.com, 2023). A visionary leadership style encourages and
contributes to establishing a working culture where employees may build an open working
environment which empowers creativity and efficiency levels of employees. Disney company
with its visionary leadership style has been contributing to and offering operational excellence
and operational effectiveness in the global entertainment market. Disney’s top executives and
management and the CEO’s visionary leadership approach have brought outstanding
experiences, visions, visionary thinking and commitment to excellence have benefited the
creativity and innovation of Disney Company in day-to-day operation
(Thewaltdisneycompany.com, 2023).
Apart from that, leadership awareness from the leaders of Disney and the leadership style of
Disney has aided the company to become one of the largest successful brands as well as helped
in attaining global worldwide success (Howard et al., 2019). A hierarchical management structure has been followed by Disney which has been beneficial for the company to establish
control and governance over the business operation. Hierarchical structure led the flow of proper
knowledge and information within the organisation for maintaining high performance of the
businesses and also helps in enhancing sustainability for high responsiveness and consistency
(Tseng et al., 2019).
Assessing the leadership style of Disney through comparing with other
competitors of Disney in the entertainment industry
Disney’s biggest market competitors are Amazon, Netflix, HBO Max and Apple Tv+ give neck-
to-neck competition to Disney Disney’s leadership and management style has well managed the
situation through its insightful and ingenious management skills. These will effective and highly
efficient management and leadership style has helped Disney to survive in the ever-evolving
global competitive market of entertainment. Not only has Disney survived in the market
nevertheless Disney has also flourished as the biggest entertainment brand in the entertainment industry by leveraging its visions, creativity and innovative leadership and management. Netflix
and Disney are the two arch-rivals of each other where two brands follow completely different
leadership as well as management styles from each other. The laissez-faire leadership style has
been followed by Netflix and the leadership has benefited the business of the entertainment
brand in a quite efficient way. The laissez-faire leadership style promotes employee
empowerment and shows trust in employee innovation and creativity as well as allows the
employee to use creativity, experiences and resources in order to meet the organisational goal
(Wgu.edu, 2023). Netflix has leveraged the benefits of Laissez-faire leadership and invested the
leader’s faith and trust in the employees for creating a more creative approach which has assisted
the company to attain more subscribers. On the other hand, another biggest rival of Disney, the
transformational leadership style has been followed by Amazon and in comparison with Disney
it lacks in management of stakeholders, customers and employees. Several effective and efficient
ethical management strategies have been implemented by Disney to attain a high customer base
and high efficiency of operation excellence plus service supremacy.
Assessing the capabilities of Disney in terms of managing business challenges Various implementations of processes have helped the company and strengthened the
management’s efficiency in order to overcome several obstacles and challenges which has
benefited the company in terms of floating in the competitive market by taking competitive
advancement in comparison with other competitors. Establishing a better and sustainable
environment is the prime concern of Disney and the management is facing crucial challenges in
order to resolve the issue of sustainability through the company being able to manage the issue
with considerable effectiveness. In order to address the challenge, the company concentrates on
making a strategic alliance and by taking other creative and effective management practices,
Disney is mitigating the issues. Strategic alliance with other companies is helping Disney to
strengthen its opportunity to enter the new market and Disney is implementing this strategy by
incorporating several companies into the business operation through proper assessment of its
strengths, weaknesses and threats. Through changing policies, involving amendment of laws and
regulations, Disney is addressing those issues and challenges and by allowing those evolved laws
and regulations, Disney has been attending a sustainable environment for organisational growth
and organisational development plus success. Disney’s strategic goals and Key Performance Index (KPI) based balanced
scorecard
Business
Perspectives That will help the company to develop content and product or
service in accordance with the customers which will eventually enhance customer experience
and satisfaction with business operations as well. Advanced analytical methods are used in big
data analytic techniques to identify useful information from massive volumes of data which
enables taking data-driven decisions (Nguyen et al., 2018). Through this advanced technology,
management may take data-driven decisions which may help in addressing Disney’s global
expansion of customer range. Through involving this technology Disney may enhance the
customer experience by real-time issue resolving and improving performance and also the
leadership of performance enhances employee motivation and productivity as well as
stakeholders’ engagement. Stakeholder engagement in organisational decision-making helps the
company with beneficial results and advances the organisation’s growth and development for
better outcomes (George et al., 2019).
The financial data of annual and quarterly years, published by Disney as the annual financial
report has helped in decision-making and in taking accurate decisions for financial development.
In order to assess the performance and financial position of the company, a financial report is
essential as it provides necessary financial statements and supplementary information (Robinson,
2020). It may be argued that using financial data is crucial for upper-level corporate leaders to
learn about the firm’s income, cash flow, profitability, debt and costs which helps in forecasting future performance.Non-Financial
Disney emphasises its corporate social responsibilities data as non-financial information, making
it the primary indicator of the organisation’s social and sustainability aspect and its effect on the
firm. In the present scenario, a non-financial statement is as crucial as a financial statement as it
provides extensive and valuable information related to the company as the financial statement
(Borodin et al., 2019). Non-financial statements enhance the trust and faith of the stakeholders in
the company and meeting stakeholders’ expectations helps the company to grow exponentially.
In order to determine how to create long-term value through efficient operational processes,
Disney has implemented an effective communication system with the stakeholders to enhance
stakeholder engagement.
Assessing the information sources’ reliability for accurate decision-making
Sources reliability and credibility have enabled the entertainment company, Disney to formulate
accurate decision making which has contributed to the advancement of the company in achieving
competitive edge in fierce global competitive market. According to Naveed et al. (2020),
financial and non-financial statements determine the reputation of the company as well as work
as two decisive factors for a company’s brand image. Disney uses financial and non-financial
statements in order to attain a high brand image as well as a high brand reputation in the global
market and also in the entertainment industry.
Recognising the crucial factors in Disney in comparison with competitors
The rise of worldwide disruption and the shift in behavioural traits of consumers regarding
streaming services has acted as a primary factor as well as it has been recognised as the main
decisive element which has affected Disney’s business. A total number of $659 million has been
calculated as the losses by Disney in the most recent quarter of the year 2023 which is an improvement from the previous year’s quarterly loss which is $1.1 billion (Nytimes.com, 2023).
The company is facing this disruption in revenue collection due to the unavailability of adequate
information and effective knowledge regarding the shifting customer behaviour. Competitors of
Disney have changed the business model and operation in accordance with the market need and
trends however Disney has failed to address that change which has been reflected by the
company’s falling revenue collection. Evaluate the past Ethical decision-making of Disney on Environmental issues
Disney is one of the popular entertainment companies and the detrimental effect of operation
amplifies the environmental issues related to climate change or sustainability. Ethical leaders
within Disney have addressed different problems by committing to incorporate measurable as
well as meaningful action to make the planet healthier along with the growth of the business
(Thewaltdisneycompany.com, 2023). In 2022, effective decision-making of ethical leaders in
Disney provides a positive impact in mitigating the existing challenges by diverting
approximately 125,000 tons of waste from landfills. Wisneski, (2020) articulated in the research
that Disney has adopted a holistic approach which helps in reducing the operational impact on
the environment as well as the community. Environmental damage is one of the concerns for
different stakeholders of the company and adopting Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR)
supports dressing different social as well as environmental issues. According to the research, it
has been opined that fostering a triple bottom line theory based on stakeholder theory improves
sustainable performance by focusing on three different dimensions such as people, profit and
planet (Hussainet al., 2018
Identify the most significant ethical issues
The efficient leaders of Disney have efficiently dealt with several challenges, however, in recent
times the entertainment company has gone through issues with employees. From a report, it is
evident that the workforce of Disney is grossly underpaid and the collaboration of six different
unions which represent 42,000 employees for pushing escalations of wages (Theguardian.com,
2023). In the USA higher inflation rate demotivates the workers in the reputed company due to
lower wages and increasing conflict may provide a negative impact on the overall productivity of
the company. On the other hand, increasing labour tension in Disney escalates issues for the
leaders as the disappointment of the employees may result in strikes under the consortium of
different labour unions for improving the amount of wage for the contractual labourers
(Nytimes.com, 2023). The discrimination in wages among employees fuel issues and gap within
ethical leadership may be the reason behind the increasing employee-related changes which may
provide impact on the growth and development. On a contrary note, it may be stated that
increasing unethical practices within the company adversely affect the brand reputation and may
Page 23 of 29
create limitations in hiring talented employees for improving innovative organisational
performance.
Recommendations for managing the issues
The recommendations are as follows:
1. Disney needs to adopt transformational leadership to address the challenges related to
wages by discussing the matter
2. The leaders of the popular entertainment company have to include digital communication
to address the issues of employees
3. Disney should provide feedback forms every quarter to the employees to evaluate the
issues which are facing by the employees
4. The entertainment company has to hire efficient resource managers to improve the
financial allocation for increasing wages according to the standardisation in the industry
In Disney, employee-related issues provide a negative impact on the ethical leadership of the
management and for this research addressing the issues based on the recommendations may help
in improving productivity in the future. Considering research it has been depicted that leadership
styles and employee behaviour have a direct relationship and transformational leadership styles
boost innovative strategies for motivating employees effectively (Hansen and Pihl, 2019). Apart
from that, Kalogiannidis, (2020) stated in the research that communication is an effective tool in
improving the growth and development of the organisation and effective interaction supports in
minimising the current challenges of the employees.
Conclusion
From the above discussion, it has been concluded that Disney is a reputed company and
dominates both the domestic and international markets based on effective leadership. The
visionary leadership style of the present CEO of the company has helped in dealing with the
existing changes within innovative notions by including the technologies within the operation.
The inclusion of a hierarchy management structure has provided the opportunity of establishing
controls and it positively reflects on both the leadership and management in the highly
competitive scenario. The balanced scorecard of Disney has provided the opportunity of
evaluating different objectives and goals and the way leaders are supporting in achieving theoverall performance based on KPIs to take competitive advantages. In recent times, the
launching of Disney+ has posed a real threat to the company due to the sudden disruption of the
pandemic and in the future the company needs to provide attention to decision-making before
launching any new products. Ethical leadership of the company positively influences the
decision-making capability which positively helps in managing different sustainability-related
issues by minimising the detrimental effect of operation on the planet. Additionally, some
recommendations have been provided to overcome the challenges related to employee-related
issues regarding underpayment which negatively impacts productivity.
