i’m a competent incompetent

Walt Disney quote
Last year on Twitter, a former Disney Institute leader who taught me about facilitation (vs presentation).

i’m a competent incompetent.

Meaning i know how much i don’t know about podcasting.

This is a great attitude to have.

Why?

The awareness creates excitement and motivation to improve.

An opposite attitude might yield fear, anxiety, avoidance.

This came to me yesterday while having brunch on the way home from the weekend in downtown Orlando.

Why write about this?

Because i’m brainstorming podcast recipes.

Luck favors these people

Used Siri to dictate the above message walking home from gym yesterday. i don’t proof or edit Siri text messages to myself.

Here’s the original thought:

So the question everyone wants to know the answer to is:

“What does jeff noel know about life that we don’t already know?”

From that question, i can swap the word “life” with:

  • leadership
  • employee engagement
  • customer service
  • brand loyalty
  • creativity and innovation

This came to me while reflecting on the Disney Keynote Speech i gave four days ago. Also inspiring this train of thought is thinking about how to concisely position my new podcast, “If Disney Ran Your Life”

If Disney Ran Your Podcast episode 2

Libsyn podcast software
Jody Mayberry had me create an account last night so he can upload episodes to iTunes.

If Disney Ran Your Podcast episode 2 ideas:

Some notes i wrote to prepare for yesterday’s “If Disney Ran Your Life” podcast episode 2….

2019 is a new year with new hopes, new ideas, new desires

Continuous improvement – recording quality vs just doing it.

How do you feel about episode one?

Risk taking – 80 and go.

Encouragement, challenge, accountability

Disney executive speakers
To say i have a treasure trove of Disney insight, history, and insider knowledge is such an understatement. Erin Wallace replaced Lee Cockerell when Lee retired on July 28, 2006. Erin’s soundbite for the Disney Leader Basics was Know, Manage, Teach.

Encouragement, challenge, accountability.

The attitude and expectations you focus on help attract the actual results you see.

Jody knew and still knows, i’m nervous about podcasting.

It’s new for me.

i’m especially inexperienced.

Jody and i are also new at working together.

Jody Maberry and i recorded the first If Disney Ran Your Life podcast yesterday.

Like anything you are inexperienced at, you immediately think about ways to improve next time, and not only immediately after, but in the days and even hours before you do something…

Prior to the podcast, i was brainstorming marketing soundbites. Content summaries to insert in the podcast.

Why?

Soundbites help solve for, “What’s in it for me if i listen?”

Hence:

Encouragement, challenge, accountability.
