Walt Disney’s wisdom speaks volumes about bridging the gap between talk and action. It's great advice and actually the first stage in doing is planning, spend a little time to save a lot of time, then each step you plan becomes a clear path forward. Knowing precisely what to do turns daunting gaps into manageable strides. #strategicplanning #thinkingskills #takeaction #makeithappen

Today is the 100th anniversary of the Walt Disney company. So how was Walt so successful? He was only a moderately talented artist. (Ub Iwerks was the real genius when it came to animating.) And not exactly very practical when it came to finances. (That was his brother Roy’s forte.) 3 Reasons: Vision Community Perseverance Walt had a vision, surrounded himself with the people who could help him achieve the vision (like his brother and Iwerks), and never backed away from his vision. Guess what? You need all three. Book coaches help authors refine their vision, become a part of their support community, and encourage them to persevere. We get to be Walt to your words.

A clip from this video featuring Lanny Smoot's work at Disney Imagineering has gone viral recently. While the clip is fascinating, it's just a small glimpse of the whole story. I highly recommend watching the entire video to fully appreciate his innovative journey and how it connects to creating amazing customer experiences. Smoot's work at Disney, like the HoloTile floor, shows us how important it is to think like our customers. This way of thinking helps us create great experiences for them. Smoot did this by really understanding what people visiting theme parks want and then making something special that adds to their fun. This is just like what we should do in customer service. We need to think about what our customers really need and want. Then, we can come up with new and creative ways to help them. When we try out these new ideas and see how customers like them, we make sure that we're not just using new technology, but also making our customers happy. So, let's use this way of thinking in our work. It's not just about new tools, but about really connecting with our customers and making their experience better. #Innovation #CustomerService #DisneyImagineering #DesignThinking https://lnkd.in/ecfbXMmr

You can't do the same things and expect different results. If you want to innovate, not just iterate, you must find new approaches. Seinfeld would never have worked if it were in the hands of traditional sitcom producers. It was championed by someone who produced one-off specials. Warby Parker came about when its founders decided to sell eyeglasses from an online-first approach. Disneyland was born because Walt Disney wanted to make movie theaters have a more "4-D" experience, and theater owners said no. If you want to innovate, get out of your current context and try things from unorthodox angles. Journey to the land of Elsewhere. A place you may have never been, have never thought of going, a place you may not even know exists. Yet it's a wonder space of new ideas. One of my favorite ways to get to Elsewhere is the Bad Idea Brainstorm. Try it with a group and see what new ideas emerge. Then try one of those ideas. Bad Idea Brainstorm: https://lnkd.in/g4CNF_5b
