Disney announced in 2021 the addition of “Inclusion” as the 5th key, which serves as the guiding principle for the company’s culture.

“At Disney, we amplify underrepresented voices and untold stories and champion a multitude of perspectives, recognizing that we are all greater than a single story and we all deserve to feel seen, heard, and understood.”

A quote from Latondra Newton – Senior Vice President, Chief Diversity Officer, The Walt Disney Company
