Hope is a great strategy but a poor tactic.

Leadership is hope’s super power.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

It went better than expected

Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker
Last week at airport newsstand.

 

We carve out a life one day, one meeting, at a time.

Yesterday’s meeting with seven Healthcare executives went better than expected, and i expected it to go well. The client was thrilled with the content, the flow, the commitment. The fact that we have worked, extensively, together in the past is a huge plus.

All my speaking in 2015 has come from referrals, recommendations, or previous clients.

Regardless of what the Harvard Business Review shares in their front page article, i will always stick to what i learned, know, and do – based on a lifetime (1982 – 2014) as a Disney insider.

Company orientation programs labeled Bore-ientation?

Orientation should trigger front line desire for discretionary effort

 

The first day of a new employee’s work is typically orientation. Often called bore-ientation.

Why make orientation unforgettable, over-the-top amazing?

Because if we can’t deliver it to them on day one, when will we?

We are setting the standard for all the rest of their days with our organization.

Seriously.

And most of us are clueless.

Which is why most employees won’t do any more than you pay them to.
