Leadership excellence resource

Could you use a world-class Disney Leadership Excellence resource this year?

What could they help you with?

Vision, Involvement, Accountability, Commitment.

What’s your vision? Does it sound clear, concise, and compelling? What’s to gain if it does? What’s lost if it doesn’t? Have you done the math on how long knowing it lasts and how long not knowing it lasts?

Do your direct reports have a clear, concise, and compelling vision for the perfect employee experience, perfect customer experience, and perfect business performance?

What’s the difference between leadership training and leadership development? Who’s driving training? Who’s driving development? Do you really understand the significant, transformational difference between training and development?

Post it note activity. Ask me how it works.

What is the three-legged stool? Hint, if you need one, it’s also called a balanced scorecard. How is it used to drive accountability for organizational excellence? Do you do this by design, or not at all? Who drives it if you are doing it by design? What happens if no one drives it?

How do you and your organization measure leadership (and employee) commitment? How much of your job is a get-to-do? How much is a have-to-do? Would you wish your job on your dearest loved one?

3 simple ideals

Time book featuring Steve Jobs
Texted this to a client yesterday.

Tim Cook told me that Steve always advised his leaders on three (mindset) things:

  1. Use time wisely
  2. Pursue excellence
  3. Leave world better than you found it

Steve was born Feb 1955.

Remember, life is not a dress rehearsal.

Live like you mean it.

Set the highest bar

Set the highest bar.

Remember, If Disney Ran Your Life, you’d be required to have the highest bar for everything.

Most, probably you too (and definitely me), will live and die as someone quite ordinary. Stop waiting. Get off the treadmill of life. Start demanding the best of yourself.

How much is enough?

How much is enough?

Enough what?

How much positivity and growth mindset is enough?

The answer lies in the obvious answers to similar questions:

How much physically vibrant health is enough?

How much spiritual peace and contentment is enough?

How much work artistry is enough?

How much home life organization is enough?

The simple answer is to have as much as you possibly can, 100% if you want to use a metric.

Under New Management

quote
What’s the first thing you do after reading this?

Under New Management.

When we see this sign on a business we immediately think, “Ok, maybe we should have another look because someone better than the previous management has finally arrived to run the place the way it should be run.”

In reality, this is us everyday, if we continuously learn and improve.

The road to excellence has no finish line.
