Disney Brand Loyalty Keynote Speaker
Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Pete Blank, a former Disney leader, is an author and blogger.
Yesterday’s post is my favorite of all he’s written.
Pete’s post is entitled, “Leadership and Lesbians, Cheaters, Whores, and Rapists…oh my!“
You can observe a lot by paying attention.
But the caveat is, you have to pay attention.
Because if you don’t….well, that’s Pete’s point. Thank you Pete for your excellent perspective.

Walt Disney’s Disneyland turned 55 yesterday.
This significant day in American history came and went, relatively unnoticed.
Just like many important dates.
As a leader, you can not allow this to happen, if you want to have a great company culture.
For people who want the motivation and courage, to dust off their childhood dreams, Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture, provided a beacon and hope for millions the world over.
But then he died.
Who will recall him now? How will we recall him? Why will we recall him?
I will. Using blogs. Because he still inspires people, to this very day. But each year, more people forget the significance of his simple message.
Who couldn’t use some inspiration?
Think the people at the Walt Disney Company forgot about Disneyland’s 55th Anniversary yetserday?
Not a chance.
Why?
Same reasons as Randy Pausch, who’s (death) anniversary is one week away.
What turbulent economic times we live in.
Think you’ve got challenges now.
Imagine having no imagination.
Imagine banking on status quo.
This two-minute Pixar Story Trailer video will have four sound bite answers to the truth about overnight success.
If you are dreaming of breaking the mold in your life, and doing work that matters (more than you are doing now) this may feed your soul.
A very special thank you to Mike Reardon for finding this and sharing it on his blog.
