Cast-Member "Star Performer" Bronze Medallions

Numerous incentive programs exist within the Walt Disney Company to encourage cast members to elevate their work performance. At the Disney Reservation Center for Walt Disney World, a quarterly "star performer" awards system has been in place for many years. There are four levels to shoot for: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and the highest being Platinum.

Pins were used as awards up until 2008. The explanation for how the program operated can be found on pinpics, paraphrased here...

For each quarter that a cast member achieved the incentive requirements, he/she would receive a pin. Only a handful of awards were given out to the top performers. First an S, then a T, an A, and finally R. The following year, the process started over.

The letter S pin featured either Goofy or Daisy. Pluto was on the T. Tinker Bell or Mickey alternated on the A (the letter was represented by a star), and the R had either Donald or Jiminy Cricket.

This Tinker Bell is the Gold Star award. Used from 2006-2008.

In 2008, the pin portion of the program ended and was replaced by medallions. Snow White showed up in the fourth quarter of 2013.
