Aladdin said to Jasmine…

Positive blind spots
Two days ago, serendipitously, unsolicited feedback from a Keynote Speech attendee.

 

Aladdin said to Jasmine…in the scene where he asks her to step onto his magic carpet…

“Do you trust me?”

Client trust is easier with referrals, and more challenging through random pairing.

i’ve been spoiled by a lifetime of client trust while working as an official Disney leader.

Now, i’m having fun becoming the best Disney speaker no one’s ever heard of.

Life behind the scenes is different

Life behind the scenes is different.

Outsiders, fans, curators, and Guests have an overwhelming belief that Disney is a great place to work “behind the scenes”.

Overall, it is.

But here’s the thing only insiders (Cast) know, it’s not always Magical.

And this fact is what makes my business advisory services and keynote speeches so compelling – the content is based on extensive experience from a lifetime inside the (current) fifth most admired company in the world.

Disney management Keynote Speaker
My career at Walt Disney World began on January 25, 1982 inside this building – Disney University.

 

Little do most Disney Cast Members know what they thought would be a fun, temporary, stepping-stone job ultimately will become a lifetime career.

Having beach chairs surrounded by palm trees on Disney’s private island was heavenly.

Spiritually at Disney’s Castaway Cay 8:30am – 4:45pm.

Every day begins with an opportunity to catch dawn turning to day.

Being conscious of this daily rhythm and both appreciating it and enjoying it is smile-worthy.

It’s like Church, but different.

Different only in style, not content.
