The Nature of leadership

Apple Watch by Walgreens
Walked two-plus miles to Walgreens for something. Intentionally walked five more on the way home.
two alligators next to water
i rarely to see two this size in close proximity. They are in the three-to-four-foot range. Walked right by them, maybe 15 feet away.
11-second video: A long Florida Black Racer snake. We have several at our house. We love having them around. This one…almost stepped on this one when i took a short ‘biological’ break.

If most of my leadership lessons come from a lifetime Disney career, the silver medal goes to nature.

In Nature what has worked, and why it has evolved and continues to work, is a masterclass in mastering life’s basics.

Disney Institute Leadership Excellence, work

Disney speaker jeff noel
My final day. October 31, 2014. Walking to work.

Disney Institute class…

Disney’s Approach to Leadership Excellence.

Thesis statement…

We judge ourselves on our intentions, others judge us on our behaviors.

We begin our content with a profoundly simple yet simply profound leadership catalyst…

Vision.

What’s the difference between a vision and a vision statement?

Answer: Your future.

Next, we dive into Involvement, Accountability, Commitment.

Context: Involvement is training and development. Two entirely different genres. Most people think “training and development” is a fancy phrase meaning one thing. It’s two words meaning entirely different things.

Also, Accountability focuses on clarity and simplicity. Clarity is power. Simplicity is operational genius.

Bonus: The three-legged stool is the first filter. Leadership is the second.

Love songs

Country music has some of the greatest love songs.

The genre, unofficially (according to me), also has the highest percentage of love songs.

Note: Christian music may have the highest percentage. (And it should). However, the karma here is love from human to human, not human to deity.
