Mentoring ambitious Cast Members is part of Disney’s Leadership culture.

 

Mentoring ambitious Cast Members is part of Disney’s Leadership culture. But it depends on the leader, all of whom have more responsibility and accountability than they have time to accomplish. At least it feels like it.

We met yesterday for the second time. It started from a LinkedIn connection and grew to an informal “meet and greet” – a common Disney leadership best practice.

Even though retired, my desire to help other Cast Members is vibrant.

Why?

Because it’s a glorious obligation opportunity to pay back those who mentored me.

In the spontaneous photo above, tangible proof of what passion looks like: an ambitious future leader feverishly taking notes.

Too bad our nose doesn’t grow when we lie to ourselves.

 

It comes down to a super simple concept doesn’t it?

We are in charge of our attitude and it’s 100% our responsibility to manage and fix anything that gets in the way of being positive, hopeful, optimistic and grateful.

Accept no substitutes excuses.

We are fool’s not to believe everything is our fault.

With each passing year, i shed more excuses. The bag that was once full of them is nearly empty now.

There are only a handful of people who’ve been here for all six years.

 

We don’t have to be ordinary.

Make your best mistake.

Then do it again.

And again.

It takes tremendous faith and conviction to believe what we want to happen will happen eventually…

By making enough mistakes, we reach the point of discovering a breakthrough success.

Not only don’t we have to be ordinary, we don’t want to be.

Not anymore.
