Walt Disney CHRO Jayne Parker to Join Speaker Lineup at the i4cp 2019 Conference
How will work continue to be disrupted in the years ahead? What does this mean for HR, and how will the changing nature of work impact the employee experience? Every industry in the world is coming face-to-face with the concept of disruption. i4cp is bringing together world-class practitioners and thought leaders to address strategies and practices around questions like these and many others.
Joining us at this year’s i4cp Next Practices Now Conference will be Jayne Parker, senior executive vice president and chief human resources officer at The Walt Disney Company.
Parker, who is responsible for leading Disney’s overall human resources strategy, global talent acquisition, leadership development, diversity and inclusion, and many other initiatives for the company’s 199,000 employees around the world, has transformed the HR function, and its impact across the company. As CHRO, Parker has overseen efforts that have resulted in:
- Enhanced leadership development across the company
- More effective and streamlined companywide talent acquisition practices
- A companywide diversity and inclusion strategy, including initiatives to improve diversity at the executive level, expanded hiring of veterans, launch of a global workplace and women’s initiative, and launch of a companywide Hispanic initiative
- Initiatives to promote internal movement of talent

The i4cp annual conference (March 11 – 14, 2019 at the Fairmont Scottsdale) is consistently ranked as one of the best business events each year because of its focus on next practices —cutting-edge approaches that impact market performance but that are not widely used—and its collaborative environment, which is closed to HR vendors, consultants, and salespeople to ensure open conversation.
We welcome you to join the hundreds of HR leaders who have already registered and
