From Tiana to Tron: Insights on What’s Happening at Magic Kingdom & Beyond
You can learn a lot about what’s going on at Disney by spending a little time at the Magic Kingdom of Walt Disney World. My recent visits there provide background and context for a number of things that are going on or are set to happen. Like the song from Disney’s Princess and the Frog, “We’re Almost There”. Or so it seems. We’ll check out every land around the Magic Kingdom and talk about what’s going on. New ticket packages and new announcements. From the parking lot tram to Happily Ever Fireworks. From Tiana to Tron. Let’s look at insights at what’s happening at Magic Kingdom and beyond.

A Century of Powerful Disney Insights Book
You can order my newest book, “A Century of Powerful Disney Insights” on Amazon. It’s a great way to celebrate the 100th anniversary of The Walt Disney Company. In over 100 years, The Walt Disney Company has emerged as one of the most successful entertainment entities across the globe. In this, the first of two volumes, we study the first 50 years of Disney, beginning with Walt and Roy. We look at major milestones and not only see the evolution of an organization begun in a garage, but how it truly became so beloved to millions around the world. From Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Mickey Mouse through Snow White and Cinderella, from the Mouseketeers to Mary Poppins, and from Disneyland to Walt Disney World, we share stories and insights from 1923 to 1973. We hope you’ll be inspired with ideas and how you can apply these stories to your own life and work.
