Preparing for a sales meeting

My teaching superpower is removing the key architectural business DNA from Disney’s complex organization and simplifying the DNA into simple, key, repeatable messages that any one can use.

Preparing for a sales meeting can be tricky.

i have a “sales meeting” in three days at Walt Disney World.

Two guys from Indonesia.

They are management consultants for a client who owns multiple theme parks. In a sense, they are the middle-men.

And in a sense i am a competitor.

In “sales-type” situations, i am working to transform myself into a listener, from a teller.

If i can extract simple, key, repeatable messages from what their client needs and wants, the contract should take care of itself.

Organization applies to everything

2016 WPS Girls Cross Country third place at Districts yesterday.

2016 WPS Boys Cross Country District Champions.

Organization applies to everything.

Yesterday, a crisp (by Orlando standards) Saturday morning, our High School boys and girls finished first and third respectively at the Cross Country District Championships.

One Junior Varsity (JV) athlete didn’t need to be there because he didn’t qualify to run. In fact, he was the only JV teammate there strictly to watch and support his teammates. Again, he didn’t need to be there.

But he was.

And given the option, most likely would have chosen to sleep in and skip it.

But he didn’t.

He didn’t have a choice.

Eventually, he’ll be making these types of decisions on his own, without parental over-rides.

That’s the goal of parental organization – to teach.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

The Internet has ruptured the notion of “secrets”

Example of management consulting — There are very few secrets that can’t be found on the Internet.

The Internet has ruptured the notion of “secrets”.

Doesn’t matter if we don’t like it.

It’s the new world order.

Learning (and adapting to) the new landscape is the new pioneering opportunity.

Anyone can analyze your methods, and then copy or rework it, and compete against your “proprietary” system.

Life is not fair.

This makes a compelling case for putting accessibility limits on your key content and methods.

This is the other management consulting company i recommended in addition to Disney Institute.

Bold is as bold does and i told the CEO that neither consulting group will do what i do, nor can they.

She’ll be paying someone a hefty fee. And may she get more than she pays for.

You cannot make a bold dream a reality if you are afraid to organize your courage, boldness, and integrity in a clear, concise, and compelling manner.

The continuous upkeep required for home ownership

Sunrise near Walt Disney World — Yesterday’s sunrise from our porch roof looking due East.

The continuous upkeep required for home ownership often yields unexpected pleasure. Like yesterday’s venture onto the front porch roof to take care of something.
