Disney has appointed two senior executives to oversee corporate strategy as it considers the future of its linear business and contends with streaming losses.
Veteran Disney exec Justin Warbrooke, meanwhile, was named EVP and head of corporate development, overseeing M&A as well as divestitures, among other areas.
Mayer was Disney's EVP of corporate strategy and business development before going on to run strategy and the DTC and international businesses.
As such, we are evolving the Corporate Strategy function to better align with this vision, which includes two leadership roles — one focused on Corporate Strategy and another focused on Corporate Development — both reporting directly to me.
In addition to strategy, Andre has advised clients on the topics of operations, organization, customer journey design, and M&A.
