Walt Disney Imagineering invited me on a very special and exclusive tour of their headquarters at 1401 Flower Street in Glendale, California. This tour gave me the chance to chat with Imagineers, visit multiple Imagineering departments (model shop, sculpting, sound, animation, and R&D), attend demonstrations and presentations, and experiment with some innovative Imagineering technology. I got to power on a realistic Star Wars lightsaber, play with the lovable BDX droids from Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge (Disneyland and Walt Disney World), and touch and feel silicone samples from Pirates of the Caribbean Battle for the Sunken Treasure (Shanghai Disneyland), just to name a few exciting milestones. In addition, I had the opportunity to interview Imagineer Dave Crawford inside Walt Disney Imagineering. All of this will be shared in today's episode.   In this episode, I share more details about my behind-the-scenes tour of Walt Disney Imagineering, including what I saw and what I learned from the experience.   Thank you to Walt Disney Imagineering for this very special opportunity.   Get bonus content, ad-free episodes, and more at patreon.com/imaginationskyway.   Create your own Disney travel memories with our sponsor KMV Travel.   Subscribe to WDW Magazine and receive 15% off with code SKYWAY when visiting https://www.wdw-magazine.com/shop/?ref=SKYWAY   Tag me and join the conversation below.

We live in a world where “connections” are made with a click, but real collaboration takes more than a follow and a like. How do we build relationships that actually last?In Part One, I sit down with Tricia Cerrone and Edward J. van Luinen, two former Disney colleagues who turned workplace synergy into a decade-long friendship and a thriving business partnership. Now, they're co-authoring a book to help others master the art of collaboration.In Part Two, we'll break down their framework—five key behaviors and a “noble purpose” approach that makes teamwork more than just a buzzword.Key Highlights of Our Interview:Why Telling People to ‘Collaborate' Doesn't Actually Work“Think you can just tell your team to collaborate and expect magic? Think again. Collaboration isn't one action—it's a mix of behaviors, and it starts with the individual, not fancy tools or technologies.”Why Collaboration Equals Innovation“Collaboration boosts innovation exponentially. It's not about wasting time competing with colleagues; it's about working together to solve problems and deliver innovative solutions that make your company stand out.”Noble Purpose: More Than Just Vision and Mission“Leaders need to remind their teams of the noble purpose behind their work. Whether it's delivering diapers or developing apps, connecting individuals to the bigger impact they have on customers is key to motivation and collaboration.”The Hidden Barriers to Teamwork: Why Collaboration Fails“From egos to insecurities, collaboration struggles often stem from within. True teamwork begins by addressing these internal challenges, transforming both ourselves and our workplace relationships.”Why Gratitude and Generosity Aren't Just Nice-to-Haves“Generosity creates safety, resourcefulness unlocks solutions, and gratitude gives teams the chance to rest and recover. Together, these behaviors make collaboration more than a buzzword—they make it work.”______________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guests: Tricia Cerrone and Edward J.

By making consistent positive deposits into the ‘emotional bank,' teams can evolve into high-performing units. Delivering results is key, but so is showing up for each other and building something lasting, as Trish and I found over a three-year project.”Collaboration Isn't Just Tools—It's Human Connection“The business world is spending almost $40 billion on collaboration tools, which are a band-aid for our failures to communicate. If you don't have the human behaviours of generosity, resourcefulness, co-creation, action, and gratitude, no technology is going to help your team be happy or collaborate better.”Be the Change You Seek—Gandhi's Wisdom for Collaboration“There's a great quote by Gandhi: ‘Create the change you want to be.' That's the foundation of our collaboration model—being the change and the leader your team is asking you to be.”_____________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guests: Tricia Cerrone and Edward J.

In honor of Women's History Month, we're producing a two-part series about two visionary and trailblazing artists: Mary Blair and Milicent Patrick. They went to the same art school. They each began working at Disney during the Depression. They were both singled out for their talents but left in 1941. From there, they went on to have wildly different careers, but each had a lasting impact on pop culture. In part one, I talk with authors and historians Mindy Johnson and Mallory O'Meara about Milicent Patrick. She started as a special effects animator on Fantasia before designing the Gill-man from Creature from the Black Lagoon. Plus, I talk with makeup and effects artist Steve Wang about why the Gill-man is a horror icon.
