Disney’s simple, key, repeatable messages

disney keynote speaker Jeff Noel
Improve Like You Mean It. Simple. Key. Repeatable. Transformational. Habits. You’re welcome.
  1. Goal is not the target, goal is the bullseye. Exceed expectations. Wow. Cup of ice. See the guy in the Hawaiian shirt?
  2. Free, infinite toolkit. Draw circle. N,W,S,E. Popcorn Patty. Three-oClock Parade? Be on this side of Main Street.
  3. What reason to hit bullseye, using unlimited tools? What percent driving in today? Off task, on purpose. Two sisters, female supervisor. Would you like to be in the picture?
  4. How important is consistency on a 10-scale (10 high)? Write (and define) C,E,S,S. Divide room. Unpack chaos. Haunted Mansion Jeff.

Let’s talk about it

GNP. Beargrass. On Hidden Lake Overlook trail, past the overlook heading down to the lake.

Let’s talk about it:

  • Group discussion
  • Table discussion
  • Pairing up
  • Self reflection

Perhaps my greatest tool as a speaker is exploiting the speaker to listen ratio.

Where Dreams Come True

If you’ve never owned the road, just you, you’ve never known a surreal feeling of the explorer. Seeing something few, if any, have ever seen.

Upcoming student presentation next month. Copy and paste below from the Google form i was requested to complete:

Do you have balance in your life? You are in charge of everything in your life as CEO of You, Inc. If Disney ran your life you would have to think differently about everything. What would happen if you applied time tested, world-class Disney business wisdom to your life to create personal vibrancy?

30-year Disney veteran, dad to 19-year old college freshman son, married 37 years, unofficial world-record holder, senior Olympian, lives less than one mile from Walt Disney World, lifetime Disney Parks pass, insatiable desire to learn and teach, TED Talk (Kuwait), two-time Walt Disney Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, spoken to over one-million people, super power is helping others .think .differently

Secret hack to improve your work

Screen capture from a participants (at this conference) social media feed.

The secret hack to improving your work?

The way to get better is to get better at getting better.

Never considered myself a storyteller. In fact i considered myself the opposite, a poor storyteller. Poor storytellers are best when they are silent.

One day, with Leslie Bays-Baker in a private, nine-executive multi-day engagement, i told the closing story and tied the story’s point to the thesis statement for the class’s entire four days.

After the group graduated and left the classroom on day four, Leslie shared, “I loved your personal story and how you connected it back to the content and the audience.”

Leslie’s feedback changed the course of my speaking career because for the first time, it felt as if i was a purposeful storyteller.

Have never looked backed from that defining moment.

Blogging every morning for 11 years was birthed out of the desire to become a better storyteller, and perhaps some day to become a master storyteller.

Why?

To dream, create, and inspire.
