What This Disney Business Excellence Book Is (Reprise)

What this Disney Business Excellence book is:

A treasure map for misfits, rebels, troublemakers, round pegs in square holes, people who see things differently – essentially it’s for all of us who aren’t fond of rules, and who disrespect the status quo.

A gift.

Different.

Short and sweet.

Doubles as a workbook for a keynote speech, half-day or full-day retreat, or self-guided exploration.

A fresh perspective on an age-old topic.

Designed for committed people and organizations.

Written from a father-to-son perspective.

Full of practical common-sense leadership wisdom.

Full of time-tested, context-neutral business insights.

Full of strategy and tactics anyone can use – any employee, any level, any industry.

A guide for the leader just starting their career.

A guide for the leader who’s been there, done that.

A template for extraordinary leadership.

The one business excellence book every leader in the world should have in their professional library.

One of seven interconnected books designed to help the right person or team draw up blueprints for organizational and personal vibrancy.

Summary:

For the right person, this book is the Organizational Vibrancy Holy Grail.

The author is leaving an Organizational Vibrancy life-guide for his son in case something bad ever happens to the author and his son has important questions after he’s gone.

The author has dedicated his life to deconstructing and then reconstructing Disney’s operational Organizational Vibrancy DNA and presenting it in a book (and speeches) to put a positive dent in our Universe.

This book is intentionally short, simple, and focused – and as a result, powerful.

Opportunity:

Thinking differently and intentionally. Build a personal or an organizational leadership architecture and seize the opportunity of a lifetime.

Confused By Abundance And Easy Access?

Confused By Abundance And Easy Access?

We can access all the business excellence information in the world.

At anytime, from anywhere.

The cost?

Free.

So why are we stuck?

Why are we still battling the whack-a-mole reality?

Sound familiar: Your day is filled with one pressing operational issue after another. Most of it is stuff that wasn’t on your calendar.

Here’s why.

We are desperately in over our heads and unwilling to publicly admit our lives (professionally and personally) are taking a toll on our business excellence effectiveness (and, by the way, on our health).

The antidote?

A better set of business excellence blueprints to build a better, healthier corporate culture.

Your next step is to identify several world-class organizational culture architects and hire the best fit.

Wait, i get it, you’re in charge and you don’t need to do anything you don’t want to, especially when the price is high.

Waiting and doing nothing are the twin siblings of organizational (and personal) decline.

Let that sink in.

Okay, the ball is in your court.

You’ve Got The Wrong Jeff

You’ve Got The Wrong Jeff

At 40, my life began to transform after answering a random phone call.

The caller offered an unsolicited opportunity to be considered to do something i never gave any thought to becoming. Never. Ever.

Become a public speaker at Disney Institute.

Not in a million years.

Told the caller she had the wrong Jeff.

Turns out, the Universe knew i was born to be a teacher and had grown impatient with me not figuring it out.

What Are You Willing To Give Up?

What Are You Willing To Give Up?

The question is always present. It never goes away. “Why are we doing all this hard work?”

You must overcome not having a clear, concise, and compelling vision. Once you do, you then have a ready answer.

Why are we doing all this hard work?

Example ‘ready’ answers:

  • So that a patient never feels like their nurse is going through the motions. So that nurses deliver compassionate care to match their clinical excellence.
  • So that no one dies in our self-driving vehicles.
  • So that no one has to worry about whether their water is safe to drink.
  • So that no one feels discrimination.
  • So that every Guest has the best vacation of their life.
  • So that my (our) son has easy access to the best of the best, comprehensive, Disney ‘Organizational Vibrancy’ Business Wisdom from my lifetime at Disney and Disney Institute.

Hypothesis

mountains
Summer 2021…the Summer that Jungle Cruise, with ‘The Rock’ (Dwayne Johnson), premiered. This small Jungle Cruise ‘FastPass’ pin is a gift from a friend who knows my first Disney role was Jungle Jeff.

Hypothesis:

Over-focus

Over-focus on the same things others under-focus on or ignore.

When you change what you see…

Everything Disney focuses on can be focused on at equal levels by any organization in the world.

FAQs

  • Does Jeff have a website with his services and fees? JungleJeff.com
  • Are Jeff speeches allowed to be recorded? Unfortunately, no, every recording format is strictly prohibited.
  • Why can’t we find Jeff’s speaking videos? Every Disney Institute contract strictly prohibited recording. None of Jeff’s 2,000 speeches during his 15-years at Disney Institute were recorded. Jeff adopted this Intellectual Property strategy to his post-Disney speaking career.
  • Does Jeff offer any fee discounts? Yes, please visit JungleJeff.com/FAQs

RAQs

  • Does Jeff wear a cape? No.
  • Can we pay a premium to have Jeff recorded? Yes.

Before the beginning

Before working at Walt Disney World (WDW), working at WDW never interested Jeff.

Before we begin, are you satisfied?

Disney, as an organization, is never satisfied. Disney is a culture of continuous improvement. This insatiable desire to improve built the Walt Disney Company. If you are satisfied with your organizational vibrancy, perhaps at this moment, you can think of someone you can gift this book to.

What this book isn’t

This book is not a step-by-step recipe for organizational vibrancy.

What this book is

This book is a comprehensive, over-focused, deconstruction and then a brilliantly simple, powerful reconstruction of Disney’s DNA.

Why this book is important

This book offers the way, the recommended best path, to organizational vibrancy. It is built by the world’s preeminent Disney DNA expert.

Competitive immunity through vibrancy

Disney’s Leadership Chain of Excellence makes perfect sense. Leaders drive the employee experience. Employees drive the customer experience. Customers drive brand reputation through their intent to definitely recommend and definitely return. Reputation irrefutably feeds the financial bottomline. Finally, creativity and innovation is the DNA of great organizations.
