From the Paper
"The company changed CEOs before the Paris effort, replacing conservative Ron Miller with a more aggressive Michael Eisner who wanted the benefits of ownership (Lopez, 2002). It obtained forty-nine percent ownership of Euro Disney. But this time around, attendance and operating income in France was disappointing explains Lopez. Cultural challenges, as well as a European recession in the early 1990s, resulted in less than expected success of the park and its related hotels and facilities. However, Disney restructured Euro Disney and the facility became a success. By the late 1990s, DisneyLand Paris was the largest theme park in Western Europe."

From the Paper
"Throughout his career, Walt continually had to meet financial and strategic objectives, and despite setbacks, he always managed to meet them, even if it meant going over budget, for which he was famous. In "Snow White," he felt Snow White looked too pale, and so thousands of frames were repainted with pink cheeks. In "Pinocchio," he felt something was missing, so Jiminy Cricket was added after the film's completion, at extensive cost. However, these details helped make the films the hits they were, and added to Disney's coffers in the end."

"Disney competes in a wide range of markets, but Mike Schneider says that for this business segment at least, profitability was affected by the World Trade Center attacks. Schneider says that attendance declined at most of North America's largest theme and amusement parks because of fears of air travel after September 11 combined with the effects of a slowing economy. In North America, overall attendance at the 50 most popular theme parks declined slightly to 173 million visitors in 2001, which was down from last year's 175 million visitors. In fact, the 10 largest parks in North America, seven of which are located in Orlando, lost more than 7 million visitors from the previous year."

From the Paper
"One of the most successful animated feature films in recent years is the Walt Disney company's Aladdin, featuring the voice of the popular Robin Williams as the Genie. The film in its short life has existed in two versions, and the difference between those versions says something about the fantasy element as promulgated in the film, however unintentionally. The theatrical release of the film contained some lyrics in the opening song that Arab groups saw as prejudiced, and the company acquiesced and changed the lyrics for the video release and all subsequent releases. Yet, the film depends greatly on certain ideas about Arabia, stereotypes from earlier films more than from any examination of the real Arabia, historical or otherwise.
Rhetorical Claim: Aladdin plays to the desire on the part of the audience to see good triumph over evil and to see the hero ... "

Abstract
The paper presents a comparative case study analysis of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and The Walt Disney Company in regard to globalization and communications. It compares and contrasts on how these two organizations operate in global and multi-cultural environments. The paper clearly identifies each organization's communication style as it reflects on the ways the companies are managing and balancing both their local and the global concerns. It also looks at what each organization's communication reflects about its culture and identity, its leadership, its decision-making, employee participation, or conflict resolution and management; and what each organization's communication policy reflects about its use of power. Based on these analyses, the report draws conclusions about the extent to which each organization's communication system is both effective and/or ethical. The paper demonstrates that the two organizations operate on an international scale and the global policies, procedures and tendencies of the communication process place these companies on very different points along the continuum of effective and ethical communication. The paper includes graphs.

From the Paper
"Prior to Eisner, Disney for example only brought in just over eight percent of its revenues from abroad. Today the company receives almost a quarter of its business from global sales. Efforts like Disney Europe in France, renewed vigor in the resort business, entry into the cruise ship business offering the luxurious Disney cruise ships, and overall global merchandising have become a staggering accomplishment. Disney for example offers more than twenty one thousand rooms from more than twenty site specific resorts and the company continues to expand. Before Eisner, the company had fewer than three thousand rooms."

"Executive Summary
The Walt Disney Company entered the amusement park market in July 1955 when it opened a new park 30 miles south of Los Angeles, California. Named for its owner, the park ushered in a new era of family entertainment and revitalized the amusement park industry. Disneyland spurred economic growth in Orange County and, specifically, in Anaheim (where the park is located). In 1972, the company opened a second theme park, Walt Disney World, in Orlando, Florida. This was followed in 1983 by a theme park in Tokyo. In April 1992, a new Disney park opened 20 miles outside Paris.
The marketing associated with the European park centers around a standardized product recognized throughout the world. Customers to any Disney theme park can expect the same high level ..."
