The best storyteller

Disney customer service keynote speaker
Started a tradition. Text Lee and Dan Cockerell, and Jody Maberry every time there’s a visit. Yesterday was one such day. Pre-Thanksgiving Day week. Wore mask although not required.

Your life is your message.

In a perfect world, you don’t need to explain anything with words.

In a perfect world, your actions tell your story.

In a perfect world.

Aim for perfection, settle for excellence.

The road to excellence has no finish line.

Don’t listen to what people say

Guy in Goofy Hat
Melody was TEDx AUK speaker #2. i followed her and Anas (Goofy Hat) was an audience volunteer who played the part of a Dad with a young daughter on a hot August morning at Magic Kingdom.

Don’t listen to what people say, just watch what they do.

That’s the true story.

That’s also where you learn who sets a great example and who is an important warning.

Wow, what am i doing here?

 

 

Wow, what am i doing here?

In 30 days, year nine concludes and year 10 begins.

Who takes a dreaded cultural phenomenon – Midlife Crisis – and turns it into joy, discovery, opportunity, and purpose?

Mid Life Celebration was a crazy idea i had while teaching the four-day Disney’s Approach to People Management somewhere near the turn of the century.

Bob Spina and i were co-facilitating how the language (specific, carefully chosen words) organizations use determines behavioral outcomes.

Note, the lack of intentionally choosing specific words also determines behavioral outcomes – and the outcomes are not crafted, they are by default, random and unintentional, possibly even detrimental.

Also in this discussion were symbols, values, heritage and traditions, as well as traits and behaviors.

And in the moment, as i was searching for a new way to say the same thing, i told the audience, “Do you have a problem or an opportunity, a problem or a challenge, a midlife crisis or a midlife celebration.”

From a tiny acorn, a mighty Oak does grow.
