Ep 317 Turn Your Morning Routine into Disney Magic ft. Lee Cockerell

 He creates Disney Magic everywhere he goes!

 Our truly magical guest today on the Strong By Design podcast is the former Executive Vice President of Operations for the Walt Disney World Resort, Lee Cockerell.

 When it comes to leading others well, no one has more experience and know how than Lee. For 10 years Lee led a team of 40,000 cast members and was responsible for the operations of 20 resort hotels, 4 theme parks, and 2 water parks along with other shopping and entertainment operations. Whew! How did he do it??

 One of Lee’s greatest accomplishments and lasting legacies while serving in this role at Walt Disney World was the creation of ‘Disney Great Leader Strategies’ which was used to train and develop the 7,000 leaders at WDW.

 Host Jared Haley discusses Lee’s 3 E’s of career magic and also about the importance of establishing a ‘magic morning routine’ to be at your very best as a leader.

 "If you want to be successful, have a good attitude, and be reliable… it will get you a long way.” — Lee Cockerell
