Abstract

Research methodology This case was developed with information gathered from publicly available secondary sources, including news articles, company annual reports, various organizational websites and social media posts. The authors pilot-tested the case in two undergraduate courses: Leadership and Labor-Management Relations. Case overview/synopsis In 2019, Abigail Disney, granddaughter of Roy Disney (co-founder of the entertainment giant The Walt Disney Company), gained considerable media attention when she publicly criticized the high compensation paid to the current Disney CEO, Robert Iger. In fact, Iger had one of the largest ratios of CEO-to-average worker pay in corporate America. Abigail Disney called for the company to reduce Iger’s compensation and to increase pay for the average Disney worker to address the perceived pay inequity. Complexity academic level This case is primarily written for the undergraduate level. The topics would be appropriate for Human Resource Management, Labor Relations, Business Ethics, Leadership, and an upper level Compensation course. It is possible that the case could also be used in a Business Strategy or Economics course if supporting documents are provided.

迪士尼公主直言不讳

研究方法:本案例的信息收集自公开的二手资源，包括新闻文章、公司年报、各种组织网站和社交媒体帖子。作者在两门本科课程:领导力和劳资关系中试点了这一案例。2019年，娱乐巨头华特迪士尼公司联合创始人罗伊·迪士尼的孙女阿比盖尔·迪士尼公开批评现任迪士尼首席执行官罗伯特·艾格的高薪酬，引起了媒体的广泛关注。事实上，艾格是美国企业界ceo与员工平均薪酬比例最高的人之一。阿比盖尔·迪士尼呼吁公司减少艾格的薪酬，并增加迪士尼普通员工的工资，以解决人们认为的薪酬不平等问题。本案例主要是为本科生撰写的。这些主题将适用于人力资源管理、劳资关系、商业道德、领导力和高级薪酬课程。如果提供支持文件，该案例也可能用于商业战略或经济学课程。
