He did something that crushed it all

Disney Cast Members
Tom (right) was our heir apparent for Bob Iger’s position (Disney CEO). The Board nixed it. Tom is no longer with Disney but he was at Disney yesterday, working.

me, Pete, and Jerry. Jerry and i go back almost three decades. Pete and i, about three minutes.

 

Disney Cast Members
Brett has a twin brother Brent. Brett and Brent are known among Grand Cast as “the Twins”. Have known them both for almost three decades. The Grand is a special Disney Family atmosphere.

 

He did something that crushed it all.

Whatever it was, it couldn’t outweigh all the good he did.

When the Disney Board speaks, people listen.

So Bob Iger extended his contract at CEO.

PS. Richard is 92 years young.

Thanks for getting it (assuming it was easy for you)

Disney Institute Keynote Speakers
No shortage of photos.

 

No video clips of me speaking.

No video clips of Disney Institute Speakers speaking either.

But there is a recorded “Jeff Noel webinar on the Disney Way” from 2016.

There are still uses for laptops and email.

However, the reasons are becoming antiquated as we move to mobile, voice recognition (replacing the keyboard), and social media platforms.

For over a year now, i’ve been calling my iPhone 7 Plus my “laptop”.

Just two days ago, i ran my Disney Leadership Keynote speech from my “laptop” – an iPhone 7 Plus.

The downside was the Bluetooth functionality wasn’t great from the floor. It even had some hiccups while i was onstage. Plowed through it because i’m determined to be an early adopter.

As a professional, i had to hide the glitches from the audience. They had no idea. It’s part of what makes Disney seem so Magical – hiding the effort required to pull off a great experience.

GRAND equals Guest Requests Are Never Denied

GRAND equals Guest Requests Are Never Denied.

The real trick (Magic) is doing it without throwing money at it.

Outsiders believe that’s how it’s done.

Trust me, there’s no money tree in the backyard.

Creativity, ingenuity, and caring are what we throw at service Recovery.

We have a forest for that.

Happy 35th Birthday EPCOT Center

 

Today’s posts are longer than normal, and then there’s this 15-minute video.

Who’s got time?

Note: Life is hard and unfair. The good news is that it is the same (which is actually fair) for everyone.
