When questions turn into statements

Best Disney Leadership Speakers
Yesterday’s AV check at Marriott’s Orlando World Center.

 

Planning on doing work that matters?

That question can double as a statement.

Planning on doing work that matters!

In an hour it’s out the door to drive (not fly) to work. The second 15 years at Disney were spent speaking for Disney Institute – over one-million people globally.

Doing work for some of the biggest and most well know brands in the world, like this.

Will celebrating milestones help your culture thrive?

Daniel bricks
Who was Daniel and why is his name on some of the bricks?

 

Should you be let go for our obvious, gross negligence?

Will celebrating milestones help your culture thrive? Of course. Yet it’s astonishing how many people know it but do not actively design their corporate human resource practices with intentionality.

It’s Sunday, January 25, 2015. Who cares? No one.

But what if we recalled that January 25 was jungle jeff’s very first day with the Walt Disney Company?

But it was so long ago, 1982, that it no longer has relevance or value to today’s work.

Epic failure.

Hard to appreciate the Mississippi River without the knowledge of it’s headwaters.

Most of your employees have no knowledge of your founder. Not even if their life depended on it.

Acceptable?

Easy or easily forgotten

On the second of only three runs in ten days, this sign instantly brought to mind a missed opportunity. An easy thing to add, if only an organization’s culture thinks intentionally – a corporate culture by design, not by default.

Thank you for visiting Dorney Park.

There are variations and or additions that could be added, but most important to communicate is “Thank You”.

Easy.

Or easily forgotten?

Thank you for reading this post. Be amazed and be amazing today.

Cultural transformation bootcamp for semi-desperate companies

(photo: Old Mid Life Celebration post. The quote referenced personal responsibility, but easily adapts to every CEO’s responsibility to demonstrate that culture is their number one priority.)

Cultural transformation bootcamp for semi-desperate companies.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was such a thing?

There is: How about Disney Management expert and retired Disney Institute Leadership speaker  jeff noel?

He retired early after 30 incredible years at Disney to give speeches to change the world. He’s still doing the same things he did at Disney Institute, but now you can hire him directly.

It’s a habit either way

Orlando Professional Keynote Speakers

 

(photo: The Apple looks different when you turn around – and it’s not the branded experience on all their labels.)

It’s a habit either way, so why not pick the better one?

The desk attendants at the Gym have an insidiously less desirable habit than the one that’s a no-brainer.

As you walk in or walk out, the delivery of, “Have a great workout” and “Have a great day” is missing something important.

Timing.

When they delay two seconds the customer walks past and now has their back turned. The only way the customer can genuinely acknowledge the kind words is to turn around.

Solution? Yes. Make it a habit to do the same thing, just three seconds sooner, as you’re facing each other.

Every organization has a culture.

Either by design or by default.
