Winter – Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker

Winter can be hot

Feet up on a stand as the sunsets — At 445pm (sunset is at 610pm) it’s hot enough to make me sweat. Sitting in a chair, shirtless, doing nothing but listening to the Doobie Brothers.

Does this sound like bragging…

Sitting in the chair (above) deep into winter, and i’m sweating. Shirtless. An hour from sunset. How cool is that?

C-ya real soon

Man in hat in stairwell — Always took the stairwell to and from DI HQ. This is the final exit trip. Next stop after this was Magic Kingdom Wardrobe, which was on my route home.

Painting of ships burning — Screenshot from Halloween Day, 2014. Starting at 5:00 PM October 31, 2014, it has been full on “burn the ships”.

Post it note — When a ‘tagline’ or marketing idea popped into my head, i found whatever i could and wrote it down. Later, i simply added it into Apple Notes.

i apply the Disney Way to my life, even “after Disney”.

It’s been fun writing these blogs today while traveling home from our first Winter Glacier trip.

With our back porch being my favorite place in the world, it dawned on me why…

A LinkedIn thread had me share this:

Disney and Delta over-focus on the same things others under-focus on or ignore. Fanatic attention to details.

Allison Ausband we recently flew Delta from Orlando thru LAX to Sydney. Your Customer Experience echoed similar praise you have for Disney. Thank you.

LinkedIn thread screen shot — Wrote this an hour ago.

Personal insight to myself: Our home houses my first and second most favorite place on Earth. And it’s because of the attention to detail we employ to make our living space feel like a vacation escape, every day, all day.
