    TEAMING AT DISNEY ANIMATION

    Section C, Group 4
    Problem Statement
    To instil autonomy in the new teams and to consider and develop changes in consequence
    to the teaming model at Walt Disney Animation Studios.

    The new organizational structure is likely to be an upgrade over the older one because of
    the following reasons:

    - This is a matrix structure which will lead to faster and higher knowledge sharing because of
    more decentralization

    - More responsive to changes because of the higher flexibility in the newer model

    - Employees are more involved than before which makes the employees feel valuable to the
    organization which in turn will improve their efficiency

    - Employees will now put the company first instead of their 'silos' which will reduce resource
    hoarding and lead to better status for the organization

    - This structurefostered creativity and employees are now given a secondary task that they
    are good at which will improve employee satisfaction and productivity

    Key takeaway

    A key take away from this case is that the appropriate organizational structure crucially
    depends on the business environment the organization operates in

    Since Disney worked in a rapidly changing technological environment and needed critical
    coordination of all departments involved, it was a necessity for it to discard the functional structure
