Lead or be?

Disney Customer Service Keynote speaker name tag
Who carries a Disney name tag to Glacier National Park? A crazy person no doubt. Here’s to the crazy ones.

Do you want to lead the category or be the category?

Writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts for 13 years and counting, makes you a category of one.

Then you add no commenting, no social sharing, no email collection, no sales funnel.

You don’t promote your blog, and never have, even when you deliver Disney Customer Service Keynote Speeches.

You truly are a rare bird.

Rock on and never let your memories be bigger than your dreams.

Summer Solstice Leadership Lessons

Change the third word to never, from always.

If you never put limits on what you can do, you stretch yourself in ways that make you a better person.

Can you shun anger?

Can you be patient 100% of the time?

Can you start and run your own business?

Can you be a role model for how to live a personally vibrant life?

The key to making change that matters

All in means all in. Not being all in means exactly that, not all in. Obvious, challenging, and yet the key to it all.

What stifles making change that matters?

A busy schedule.

A lack of balance between the big categories.

Time and competing priorities create the illusion that organizational and personal vibrancy are impossible.

Balancing leaders, employees, customers, reputation, and improvement yields organizational vibrancy.

Balancing mind, body, spirit, work, and home facilitates personal vibrancy.

At the DNA level what makes change happen and last?

Commitment.

How well does your architecture serve you?

Just happened to notice a rocket launch a few minutes after it actually launched. Yesterday. Sitting at my desk.

Context: customer equals anyone that you serve, everyone in an organization serves others.

  1. Does your architecture help you deliver on what your customers want most?
  2. Does your architecture support your business strategy?
  3. Are workloads balanced among your leaders?
  4. Are employees getting the right amount of direction, not too much, not too little?
  5. Is there partnering and synergy across geographical and organizational boundaries?

i could go on, but these five define the point that there is much room for improvement.
