What’s the difference between training and development?

Training to meet customer expectations:

Trainers
Procedures
Manuals
Objective evaluations
Compliance

Development to exceed customer expectations:

Leaders
No procedures
No manuals
Subjective evaluation
Commitment

We lump these two entirely different tools together as “Training and Development”.

Why is that dangerous?

Lost opportunity?

Easy opportunity?

Lost opportunity.

Which team will win, a well-trained and compliant team or an amazingly developed and committed team?

Do you take your smile with you everywhere you go?

Do you take your smile with you everywhere you go?

It’s so contagious.

No?

Who would you think is in a better mood, the businessman in the designer suit who isn’t smiling when he makes eye contact with you, or the single dad pushing a stroller, wearing cut-off jeans, an old college tee-shirt, and has a smile a mile wide?

Dress for success.

Disney Leadership Keynote 60 minutes vs 90 minutes

GNP — Glacier National Park, Summer 2016. The next blog (Lane8) reveals why this photo was taken.

Disney Leadership Keynote 60 minutes vs 90 minutes.

Same content for either length…

Vision • Involvement • Accountability • Commitment

Same high-energy, serious-focus, fun, interactive delivery.

What’s different then?

The extra 30 minutes adds even more interactive, engaging, thought-provoking activity, roughly seven additional minutes of experiential learning for each of the four world-class leadership excellence basics.

You know the drill: lather, rinse, repeat

Lake McDonald Lodge beach and marina, Glacier National Park.

A more consistently positive attitude.

When?

If not today, when?

If not tomorrow, when?

If not ever, why?

You never hear people say, “I wish I would have waited longer to get started.”

Humbled, inspired, and haunted

Glacier National Park hike — Glacier National Park, 2016 visit with college buddy Dave..

Humbled by my imperfections.

Inspired by my blessings.

Haunted by my standards.

The overachiever in me wants to go three for three.
