If Disney ran your business, we’d ask three simple questions:
There are many more questions but these are the baseline starting points.

Began 25 minutes behind schedule and ran over my time by one minute, a net loss of 24 minutes. Never complained. Saw it coming and adapted on the fly. This is what a professional speaker does.
Did the client or the audience have any idea?
Certainly not the audience.
Just another day of doing work that matters.
Coincidently, received an email from a different client with great news. The Speakers Bureau’s client agreed to remove their video taping request.
i was willing to walk away from a big contract, rather than compromise my values.

So much hype. So little time.
Either i’m an anomaly, or there’s a lot of stuff that isn’t necessary in order to run an entrepreneurial business.
So much advice on what you should do to be successful, yet i do very little of it.
Business is growing nicely, even though on paper, i’m not doing it right.

Switching gears from Bob Iger to one of my potential clients, also a CEO.
The CEO is calculating. That’s why she has lasted this long and that’s why her business does well economically while many in her industry suffer. She is exceptionally smart, driven, patient, and creative.
It will be interesting to see what happens when we get closer to how much it’s going to cost.
My gut (which isn’t 100% accurate, but it’s close) tells me she’s trying to use time (and patience) as a creative way to get me to lower my price, simply because i’ve invested so many months (near a year now) in tasting the strong possibility of a contract.
Interesting thing though. i’m cut from the same cloth. The person who will prevail is the one who can walk away.
While i hope things will work out, i’ve already envisioned life without this contract.
In a competitive world, i can’t help but wonder if she envisions her organization’s future culture without my help.
Boldness contains many benefits. Boldness also contains the possibility for a crash and burn.
