By design. The Pixar movie characters from SOUL. As a bonus, Walt Disney World 50th anniversary pin. Why do this? To help me remember what year the photos were taken.

Disney’s Approach to Employee Engagement.

(i taught it when it was called, Disney’s Approach to People Management. Note: The content hasn’t changed, just the name, for marketing reasons.)

Thesis statement…

Culture by design, not by default.

Every organization has a corporate culture. Few (almost none) are by design.

Endless Junior year

i think i wanna be a college junior for the rest of my life. A Junior is confident in a way freshmen and sophomores can’t be. Juniors are thinking about the future more seriously than ever, but they always have another year to sort it out.

A Senior is too much pressure for me. The future is here. Gotta get a job and do real life stuff.

As a sophomore you’re still learning. Still a relative newbie.

Freshmen, well, they’re too uncertain, unconfident, inexperienced.

Junior year is the sweet spot.
