What this Disney Employee Engagement book is not:

Not for everybody.

Not full of Disney trivia.

Not an ounce of theory.

Not eloquently written.

Not long and drawn out.

Not a one-size-fits-all recipe for success.

Not a employee engagement step-by-step how-to guide.

Not a guarantee.

Summary:

This employee culture book is not for everyone.

Tradition and convention have their place, however, it is not here.

Employee culture opportunity:

The fact that something might not work is a leading indicator that it’s worth pursuing – breakthroughs only become a thing when a transformation occurs.

Before we begin, are you satisfied with your employee engagement?

Before we begin, let’s ask, “Are you satisfied with your employee engagement?”

And by the way, you have anonymity, right now, with your answer – so relax, be real, and lean into discomfort just enough for your truth to be set free.

So let’s ask again…

Take a deep breath…

Exhale.

Another slow, deep breath as you hear this again…

Are you satisfied?

You.

Your employee engagement reputation and your results.

Are you satisfied?

Your answer?

Anyone’s answer?

An educated guess says our answers match.

That’s why you’re reading this book and that’s why this Disney Employee Engagement book needed to be written.

Summary:

Everyone wants to improve.

There are exceptions to every rule, but there aren’t many.

We are not the exceptions.

Opportunity:

Dissatisfaction can and should be used as a tactic (tool) to gain a competitive advantage.

How will you feel when you pick one of only three choices?

Worth it to pursue world-class Employee Engagement?

How will you feel if you try yet fail?

How will you feel if you never try?

How will you feel if you try and succeed?

The math says we have to try in order to succeed. But nothing is guaranteed. So the math also says trying inherently comes with the probability of failing.

Without the comfort of living with failure, success will never be ours.
