Fantastic

Blurred photo from Disney Leadership class
We had many moments like this one, yesterday.

 

Fantastic.

Every time i speak, i listen for the words people use when they say something to me afterwards.

There is a big difference in word choice and i’m only listening for one category of words.

i find solace in hearing words that revolve around yesterday’s key word choice – fantastic.

Note: When people say “that was really good”, i failed.

Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker

Spring Grove, Pennsylvania is my hometown. Every Cast Member submits their “hometown” which is then personalized on their name tag.

 

The second “real page” in the workbook says:

Lead like you mean it.

The world needs great leaders.

PS. Leadership is not a title, although it can be. The leadership i’m talking about starts with the person in your mirror every morning.

There’s a reason why i do not have an email subscription signup

There’s a reason why i do not have an email subscription signup. Most people are buried by their email’s in-box. i do not write to build an email subscription list. Most gurus insist an email list is your bread and butter.

Only a few hours away from hitting 72-hours without a response from an important business professional.

Rather than be frustrated for the delay, i use my energy to pray that they are okay and that some difficult, and perhaps overwhelming, business challenge isn’t consuming their soul.

Does that sound like a goody two-shoes?

You can just sense there is something remarkable inside

Outside Montreal’s Notre Dame Cathedral…you know there is something remarkable inside.

 

The workbook draft was sent to my International Graphic Designer last night. Anticipating something remarkable. We met a few days ago at the Apple Store. My goal was to reinforce the vision of a workbook that is simple, elegant, and different than typical seminar workbooks.

It went better than expected

Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker
Last week at airport newsstand.

 

We carve out a life one day, one meeting, at a time.

Yesterday’s meeting with seven Healthcare executives went better than expected, and i expected it to go well. The client was thrilled with the content, the flow, the commitment. The fact that we have worked, extensively, together in the past is a huge plus.

All my speaking in 2015 has come from referrals, recommendations, or previous clients.

Regardless of what the Harvard Business Review shares in their front page article, i will always stick to what i learned, know, and do – based on a lifetime (1982 – 2014) as a Disney insider.
