After the Disney Employee Engagement Keynote speech, there was a video interview in a nearby Boardroom.

A question centering around what’s the secret to a great employee culture directed my answer in a unique way….

” Everyone knows the benefits of taking care of your personal health. Yet many of us struggle to be excellent at the basics for personal vibrancy. Organizational vibrancy – a great employee culture – is the same thing. We all know the benefits of doing the right things, the basics, and those who succeed are the ones who make the basics their top priority.”

Take your role of CEO (being the top dawg in your life) seriously – as if your life depends on it, because it does..

You are the CEO of You, Inc. Vision is your greatest asset.

You are the CEO of You, Inc. Motivation is your second greatest asset.

You should have one clear, concise, and compelling vision for your life.

From that one remarkable vision, you will have multiple visions tiering up to ensure your clear, concise, and compelling vision is realized.

  1. Have a clear, concise, and compelling vision for your lifelong attitude.
  2. Have a clear, concise, and compelling vision for your lifelong health.
  3. Have a clear, concise, and compelling vision for your lifelong spirit.
  4. Have a clear, concise, and compelling vision for your lifelong career.
  5. Have a clear, concise, and compelling vision for your lifelong dwelling.

Life’s five big choices.

Mind, body, spirit, work, home.

Personal vibrancy or struggle to survive.

In business it looks like this: Organizational vibrancy and a category of one, or struggling to keep up with the lead industry pack, and worst case, struggling to grow and prosper (surviving and avoiding bankruptcy).

The main reason organizations get and stay stuck

The reason organizations fail at their primary purpose (which is to deliver shareholder value by surprising and delighting their customers and employees), is because they fail to embrace what truly motivates and inspires their people.

Employees aren’t encouraged and motivated by rewards or reprimands.

Employees aren’t inspired by upward mobility and performance review ratings.

Employees, at their core, want meaning in their lives. They want to feel like a part of something bigger than themselves. Something they can rise up to.

They want a true sense of connection.

If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

And your people won’t reach high enough either.

It’s about being intentional where others are unintentional

Home themed after Disney. Intentionally.

 

Disney is currently the 5th most admired company in the world according to Fortune.

Disney’s success is driven by over-focusing on the same things others under focus on or ignore.

It’s about being intentional where others are unintentional.

Is impossible critical to vibrancy?

It’s literally impossible for a bug to escape a spider web’s grasp, but most bugs will die trying.

 

Is impossible critical to vibrancy?

The compelling reason for an impossible goal is because it solves for this question, “Why are we doing all this work?”

So yes, impossible is critical to vibrancy, personally and professionally.
