Safety first is a mantra at Disney and always has been.

Purchasing digital safety equipment was not on my mind a few days ago as i drove to the Apple Store to buy a different pair of earphones to use while bicycling. Better headset, better, more clear connections on business calls.

Unexpectedly, i discovered a new line of home/business security products on the wall display next to the headphones.

Bob Iger, Disney’s reigning CEO, wants every leader to have a love affair with technology.

Bob has Walt Disney’s DNA, Michael Eisner the 21-year Disney CEO before Bob, and literally every leader at Disney also possesses this DNA.

It is really fun (yes, fun) to make things easier AND more secure at the same time.

Maybe you are still in the ideation phase, brainstorming what might be required (in time, money, initiatives) to move your current culture forward in more effective and efficient ways.

Maybe you have a good culture, and you are looking to improve your culture from good to very good, or even to excellent.

Maybe you have a department or several departments with a great culture, flourishing within your larger organization, which isn’t performing at such consistently effective levels and you want advice on what to do next.

Or maybe you’re still way in the beginning, trying to decide if culture is even worth the effort.

Is zero inbox possible

Is a zero inbox possible?

An Inc.com article prompts me to now share what i’ve quietly been doing for nearly a year. So it isn’t some pie-in-the-sky goal or desire. It’s a fully developed habit.

Every day since July 4, 2015 (inspired by preparation for a week-long writer’s retreat on Sanibel Island), i have gone to bed with zero emails in three folders.

1. Inbox
2. Sent folder
3. Trash folder

Impossible is only so until someone reaches a breakthrough.

Is it challenging and difficult more than 50% of the time?

Yes.

But not doing it means email management is challenging and difficult 100% of the time.

Pick which hard and challenging you want to live with.

Simplifying as much as possible is a great theory

Can i cut a 30-minute drive to a 10-minute drive? My FedEx is also a Kinkos.

 

As a small business owner, print material is one of my few physical assets; workbooks and tri-fold pamphlets.

Face to face contact always beats phone or digital contact, at least for me.

As 2016 unfolds, my printing needs will increase; probably dramatically.

Two million things we need to manage

HP ink cartridges
Backup printer ink.

 

Along with the million things we have to do to be vibrant, productive members of society is another million little things like ordering more printer ink – for the backup printer.

Yes, backup printer.

The main printer subscribes to HP’s ink replacement membership. HP (by wirelessly tracking ink levels) sends new cartridges just before you need them. There is a monthly membership fee, but an unlimited amount of ink they will send (at no additional charge).
