Common sense isn’t too common

Disney Keynote Speaker
Removed prices yesterday, in an experiment with a Speaker Bureau. They have asked me to sign an exclusive contract with them. Removing public prices helps their cause. One small step…i can always go back.

When in doubt, just take the next small step.  – conventional wisdom

Would have been more impressive had he worn his t-shirt

So is Mark Zuckerberg’s message, “Only dress up when you’re in the hot seat?”

 

Would have been more impressive (to me) had he worn his signature t-shirt.

That’s his brand statement.

Why deviate?

Sure, there’s a time and a place for everything.

Yet there’s literally an exception to every rule.

Road closed due to fireworks

Disney World at night
Heading home, but the road is closed due to Magic Kingdom fireworks. Space Mountain lit in a rose-colored glow.

 

Road closed due to fireworks.

Did a U-turn at Magic Kingdom cross-walk and then drove past Fort Wilderness and Golden Oak to get home.

Our three-hour dinner was a balance of personal and business.

The CEO apologized for the lateness of our meeting.

i told him, “It was time well spent.”

i’m all for change, but

Disney Institute facilitators at Magic Kingdom
Ran into a Disney Institute colleague yesterday. Friends can see their friend’s blind spots easily, and our friends easily see ours. Easily.

Disney’s Continuous Improvement Process

Disney Stroller
You couldn’t take Disney Strollers on the Train and the Train was the quickest way to get to the back of the Park. Huge Guest dissatisfier. 

 

Recognize and celebrate is often the most difficult (at least for me) because as soon as something is improved or solved, there is always an immediate need to solve or improve something else clamoring for attention.
