Yesterday, Disney chairman and CEO, Bob Iger and First Lady, Michelle Obama, stepped on stage and gave keynote addresses at the company’s first-ever Veterans Institute workshop at Walt Disney World Resort says the Disney Parks Blog.
Both Mr. Iger and Mrs. Obama were joined at the daylong seminar by ABC News anchor, Bob Woodruff and other inspiring speakers and panelists to encourage the employment of servicemen and women transitioning to the private sector.
Along with renowned keynote speakers and experts, seminar participants got an inside look at Disney’s Heroes Work Here, customized Disney Institute courses as well as advice and stories from veterans who have already made the transition to the civilian workforce.
