NYT said:Over the last year, as Mr. Staggs came under intense scrutiny by Disney’s board, it became clear that at least some board members were not convinced that Mr. Staggs, 55, had the skills required to maintain Disney’s creative momentum, these people said. Mr. Staggs and Disney mutually decided to part ways.
