The training & development trap

The training & development trap…

Training teaches you how to do.

Development teaches you how to lead.

Doing and leading are not the same.

Not even close.

Train for compliance.

Develop for commitment.

You’re welcome.

The difference between involved versus committed employees

When i think about commitment at Disney, it reminds me of eggs and bacon at breakfast. The chicken is involved. The pig is committed. Sounds kinda ridiculous until we dwell on the notion for a moment. The difference between involved employees and committed employees is the difference between running with the pack, or clearly outdistancing the competition.

Fun trivia: The only place Guests could find Mickey Mouse when Epcot Center opened on October 1, 1982 was on the drain hole covers, pictured here. Epcot Center opened as “the adult Park” and there were no characters. We quickly discovered this was a huge mistake.
