Speaker Video idea 4/5 – Conflict:

Great stories always involve conflict. We’ll need to figure out our conflict. Some ideas:

  1. Client verbally pushes back on “No speaker videos and wants to discontinue conversation – or the look on jeff’s face says the client never replied back via email.”
  2. jeff is clearly challenged to find a convincing way to get Meeting Planners and Speakers Bureaus to .think .differently
  3. Showcase a Disney Theme Park example of a stereotypical challenge that overcame conventional thinking by our Guests
  4. Illustrate the “plain vanilla effect” of every speaker having speaker videos – an impossible stereotype to break???
  5. Maybe a short clip of Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute mile barrier, or something like that – the Berlin Wall coming down

Like you own it

jeff noel Disney expert speaker
Yesterday at the gym…emailed myself some thoughts triggered by a song.

 

  • Just lead
  • Just engage
  • Just serve
  • Just love
  • Just improve

•  •  •  •  •

  • Lead like you own it
  • Engage like you own it
  • Serve like you own it
  • Love like you own it
  • Improve like you own it

 

Being an entrepreneur is 24/7.

And zero theory.

A Disney concert called 80 and go

Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker

 

“80 and go”…

Theres a Disney concept one of our Executives coined as “80 and go”.

It’s ok to launch something that isn’t perfect. In fact, waiting for it to be 100% almost guarantees it will never happen.

Launch, learn, revise. Repeat.

Told the designer: make it simple, corporate, and different.
What’s live is the first draft – the 80%.

Taking risks is risky. So is playing it safe.

Ten ideas to unearth writer’s flood content

Disney University hallway
Disney University hallway. Yesterday.

 

Writer’s block? Here are ten ideas for content:

  1. What you learned yesterday.
  2. What you get to do today.
  3. What you hope for tomorrow.
  4. Obvious or invisible paradox.
  5. Common sense that isn’t common.
  6. Simple questions few can (but should be able to) answer instantaneously and convincingly.
  7. Excuses, regrets, opportunity, second chances, and permission.
  8. Art. Your art. Art the world needs.
  9. Impossible things.
  10. Love.

One day you will suffer from writer’s flood. Please don’t cast blame this way. You’re welcome.

What’s the advantage of hiring a Disney Institute Customer Service Speaker?

Disney Institute Customer Service Speakers
The advantage is unmatched intimacy and experience.

 

Where do we find great business ideas in a sea of time-tested information?

While cleaning yesterday, found two old notes written on a post-it:

  1. Consulting ROI.
  2. Disney Institute (DI) Chamber of Commerce.

Unsure of the first one’s meaning. Can guess it’s about how you convince a client your high price is worth it. The second is a spin off of what DI already does with their Sponsorship Series.

What’s the advantage of hiring a Disney Institute Customer Service Speaker?

The advantage is intimacy.
