An example closer to animation comes from Peter Schneider, an executive brought in by Katzenberg in the 1980's to Disney Animation.
He states, "When I got to animation, I knew I had 100 days to change the culture before it changed me. I was trying to empower people, to make them feel good about themselves, to value the work." He knew that decisive action was needed to turn the workplace atmosphere around.
