Josh D’Amaro was very recently promoted from President of Disneyland to President of Walt Disney World back in September 2019. At Disneyland, Josh oversaw the opening of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Project Stardust, an on-going effort to restore the park’s beautiful, character, and guest experience.
For many Cast Members, Josh is a great fit for the company. Josh is warm, personable, and a great team player. He’s taking the position previously held by Bob Chapek, who is now President of the Walt Disney Company.
