Executive Career Development Secrets from a Life at Disney... Career Development Magic is a unique book full of priceless advice and insightful experience. Lee Cockerell chronicles how he went from being a college dropout, rose through the ranks at both Hilton and Marriott, and ultimately became the Executive Vice President of Operations for Walt Disney World? Resorts. As the Senior Operating Executive for more than a decade, Lee led a team of 40,000 Cast Members and was responsible for the operations of 20 resort hotels, 4 theme parks, 2 water parks, a shopping & entertainment village and the ESPN sports and recreation complex. After spending more than 40 years in the hospitality industry developing skills, learning lessons in management and excellence in customer service, people were always asking Lee, "How can I climb the corporate ladder? How can I get into management? How can I get promoted? How can I make more money?" It was these persistent questions that led Lee to write this book. Lee candidly shares the specific things he did to experience such dramatic success in the corporate world, but he also shares the mistakes he made along the way, and the millionโdollar lessons he learned that ultimately led him to the top spot at the number one vacation destination in the world. It was not Disney magic that made Lee Cockerell's career so successful, but the way he dealt with the ups and downs that made it magical. It's the same with your career. Through this book, you will learn how to navigate the ups and downs along your own career path and zero in on your ideal job โ and ultimately, the life you desire. When Lee Cockerell says "If I can do it, so can you," he truly means it. No matter where you are along your career path, you have an opportunity to climb the ladder of success by paying attention, asking questions and having a passion for your chosen career. Review: Must read. Lee is a Sage! - Again, Lee shares great wisdom and practicality. His deep desire to make people better through the sharing of his experiences, expertise, passion, and gifts comes through again. Read this book, apply the principles, and your career and personal life will soar! I am a doctor, a medical director, physician coach, and speaker for a large healthcare system. I am also a hardcore student on how do continually improve yourself and Lee is a master teacher. His insight has changed my life. I give this book, and his previous ones, my highest recommendation. Read and be blessed! Review: I have to say that this is another great addition to my leadership library - After reading all of Mr. Cockerell's book, I have to say that this is another great addition to my leadership library. A rollercoaster of career up and downs, but overall a great journey into what one man and his family experienced over the span of a successful and very memorable career. Every week I keep hearing the plugs on the weekly podcast "Creating Disney Magic," but finally made the appointment in my planner to order the book. Glad I did, and you will be too.

Such a fantastic book. I've have read the other books that Lee has written, and this one didn't disappoint. He has such a clear and concise way of telling you like it is, without sugar coating it. So many wonderful tips, along with great insight into some pitfalls that may arise as well. Life isn't perfect, and he tells you that along the way, but with hard work and integrity, you can achieve success. Would highly recommend to read all of his books!
