Disney Institute class…

Disney’s Approach to Employee Engagement.

Thesis statement…

Culture by design, not by default.

Every organization has a corporate culture. Few (almost none) are by design.

Next, we ‘operationalize’ (form foundational corporate habits) our culture using…

Language and Symbols, Heritage and Traditions, Traits and Behaviors, Shared Values.

Employee engagement resource

Could you use a world-class Disney Employee Cultural Engagement resource this year?

What’s your organization’s origin story?

If you know it and can excite others with your retelling of it, you’re probably in a good place. If you don’t know it, guess what?

What about every other leader on your team?

Leaders –> Employees –> Customers –> Reputation –> Improve

Employees stay if they are happy, and if they stay they get good at what they do.

We know great employee engagement is a competitive advantage

Any leader and any organization, in any industry, can architect world-class employee engagement using systems and processes they control. World-Class Employee Engagement is not reserved for special organizations that have secrets others don’t and never will have. Exceptional engagement is built with four fundamental blueprints. Jeff’s Disney Keynote will be interactive, fun, thought-provoking, and comes with a personal challenge for every participant.

Every company has a culture that is either by design or by default. You’ll unpack Disney’s indispensable secret for organizational vibrancy – a culture by design that is operationalized through the four human resource practices of hiring, training, inspiring, and valuing.

There are four engagement strategies for creating, sustaining, and improving organizational habits. You’ll also learn a blinding flash of the obvious – culture is what employees think and do, without thinking. Jeff reminds leaders that what we accept by default (in a busy world) becomes the company standard.

Great organizations learn to over-focus on the same things others under-focus on or ignore.

Most organizations focus on the day-to-day operations out of necessity and slowly erode the founder’s DNA to a distant memory. Profit becomes the goal when it should be viewed as the reward. 

You’ll learn the business insights that Disney uses to architect organizational vibrancy and discover how these very insights can be easily applied to any organization (small to large), in any industry, and can be seamlessly integrated into the way you hire, train, inspire, and value every employee.

Expect to be wowed. Expect to have fun. Expect to be enlightened. Expect to be put to task. You deserve it. C-ya real soon.

BIO:

Jeff Noel is a 30-year Walt Disney World Leadership veteran, two-time Disney Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, a published author, and highly-sought business advisor, helping Fortune 500 companies worldwide achieve greater success through a series of programs focusing on Jeff’s unique approach and architecture for World-Class Organizational Vibrancy. He has spent his life deconstructing and then reconstructed Disney’s DNA into clear, concise, and compelling business insights. Jeff not only helps you see remarkable opportunity, but he also engages you in wonderfully participatory ways so you actually “feel” his context-neutral insights – it’s the “feeling” of these insights (and the simple architecture) that will motivate, excite, and inspire you to create a future that’s better than now. Much better.
