Honoring Cast as New Recipients of The Walt Disney Legacy Award

Honoring Cast as New Recipients of The Walt Disney Legacy Award

Earlier this year, we shared a peek behind the curtain about the Blue Legacy Nametag, what these special nametags mean, and revealed that nominations for The Walt Disney Legacy award were about to begin. Fast forward to today and I’m thrilled to share a select number of cast members, crew, Imagineers and employees have now been notified they were selected to receive this prestigious award with more notifications of their peers to follow in the coming weeks!

The Walt Disney Legacy Award is Disney Parks, Experiences and Products’ highest honor and recognizes truly exceptional individuals within the organization who excel in the criteria of DreamCreate and Inspire. Surprise notifications began yesterday for our Disney cast members, crew, Imagineers and employees who put forth their very best for our guests, their fellow cast and the company. Take a look at just a few of the special moments happening across the globe during this first week of notifications.

DREAM
“Janet looks to the future with optimistic eyes, upholding a legacy of excellence for guests.”
“There is no one more positive than Kaitlin and it shows with everything she does.”
CREATE
“Brandon creates trust with his cast, peers, and his leader and he accomplishes this by being a person of great integrity and courage.”
INSPIRE
“Kelly goes above and beyond to inspire everyone they interact with. With their weekly ‘Walt Quote Wednesday,’ they embrace Walt Disney’s spirit as well as their passion to encourage every cast member they come across to be the best they can be.”

You never know who the next recipient of The Walt Disney Legacy Award will be so stay tuned to @DisneyParks and our global Disney Ambassadors as we continue to celebrate our new recipients!
