stereotypes – Disney Employee Engagement Speaker

Stereotypes, body

What are stereotypes? Why do they exist? How are they helpful? How are they harmful?

In 1999 at Disney Institute, i learned how to teach positive and negative stereotypes to global business leaders.

Everyone knows about negative stereotypes.

Few have successfully exploited positive stereotypes (branding) like the Walt Disney Company.

Stereotypes are true and untrue beliefs about something or someone.

Stereotypes exist because they help society filter repetitive patterns efficiently.

Stereotypes positively offer effortless reflexive responses and choices in daily life.

Stereotypes negatively offer untrue, harmful, indecent, and unwanted judgement on things and people.

What’s possible?

We all have our limitations, right?

How can we be so sure?

Did this Disney Institute Leadership Keynote Speaker feel like running yesterday? No. Did he? Yes.

Dear blogger, your post seemed to target that body weight defines a person.

Weight is a metric like any other metric.

Shift gears for a second.

The number of children we have (or don’t have) can also be a metric.

Some metrics are easy for others to see.

Most aren’t.

Our body is a gift from God. A temple housing everything that keeps us alive.

How we honor that (or don’t honor that) is easily measured.

And yes, it’s a struggle, a battle, an on again off again thing – until one day it’s only an on again thing. Only.

Be well and remain amazed.
