Disney Brand Loyalty Keynote Speaker
Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
A Social Media perspective, from Beet TV, featuring Bob Iger, CEO, The Walt Disney Company. Bob says Disney isn’t embracing Social Media, Disney is embracing the consumer – it’s the consumer who is embracing social media.
I loved hearing Bob Iger say, “We’re simply going to reach more people in more ways”.
I’m with you Bob. I’m right there with you.

jungle jeff is on purpose.
Are you on purpose? If you are, fantastic. If you’re not, there’s hope. Surely you believe there’s hope.
Walt Disney’s “Small World” is a classic song of hope.
Here are a few things I did to get and stay “on purpose”:
Did I get it right the very first time? No.
Was is hard to do? Yes.
Did it take a long time? Yes.
In my opinion, if you want to unleash your fullest potential, you will do the hard work to figure this out.
Walt Disney and jungle jeff have a lot in common. Carpe diem, jungle jeff :).

While it was never a childhood dream to be a professional speaker, there is no other profession I have more passion around.
As our young son grows and dreams big dreams, it’s my role (and my wife’s), to teach him how to live on purpose and with purpose.
Business leader’s have that same responsibility. In fact every leader, in every organization does.
On purpose. With purpose.
Are you crystal clear on where you are headed? Better yet, would your team say you are?
Today’s program begins with key leadership deliverables. And it starts with your vision.
Do you believe in your vision? Are you willing to do whatever it takes? Are others compelled to follow you? Are they inspired by it? Will they do whatever it takes?
Do you communicate your vision constantly? Passionately? With purpose? On purpose?
I know an eight year old who would answer yes to all of the above. Eight. Ya with me? Eight.

Last Sunday, on the connecting flight from Paris to Helsinki, I flew Finnair.
Like Delta Airline’s Sky Magazine, Finnair has a similar publication in every seat back pocket.
In usual fashion, my eyes gravitated to what many would overlook.
Here’s the photo – a picture’s worth a 1,000 words:
Happy corporate blogging. Carpe diem, jungle jeff 🙂
PS. For any potential critics out there that might be saying, “So what’s your point jungle jeff? I thought you said August was going to be about how you are applying what Disney has taught you to raising your son”?
And I say, “Exactly. Did I mention my son has started blogging”?
And did I mention, “He’s eight”?
Carpe diem, jungle jeff 🙂
“It’s what you learn after you think you know it all that counts”.
That quote belongs to John Wooden, former UCLA Men’s Basketball Coach, and ESPN’s recipient of “Coach of the Century”.
Not the basketball coach of the century. THE Coach of the century, any sport.
Our son is pretty certain I know just about everything. Maybe that will last another year or two. Maybe not.
I can’t wait to tell him stories and show him pictures and videos of all that is the same and all that is different here in Lahti, Finland.
In fact, it seems everything is the same here. And still, everything is different.
Everything Disney does is the same as every other company. And yet, everything Disney does is different.
If there are young children in your life, and this doesn’t mean only parents, have you ever stopped to contemplate your role in their learning about similarities and differences?
Or are you like me – tempted to think I know it all?
Carpe diem, jungle jeff 🙂
