Creating Magic: 10 Common Sense Leadership Strategies from a Life at Disney Audiobook

" Great book. This will be a requirement for all my current and future managers. "

" Everyday is a magic! Lee's common sense principles with real life experiences, this magic far more than the "payment". The audiobook quality is excellent! Don't miss your chance to test the magic yourself! "

" I highly recommend this book. The ten basic principles in this book are super practical, and it just reveals why Disney is such a magical place. "

" Very solid leadership and management book. Emphasizes the basics and uses some great real life examples throughout. Leadership isn't complicated...treat people right and you'll do well. "

" I really enjoyed this book. I thought that it was a great way to get motivated as a leader and there were many great tips to follow as a leader. Some points in the book were often reiterated to the extent of boredom. However, overall it was a great read. "

" Listened to this book in the car on my commute. It energized and inspired me to bring a little Disney magic to my work world. "

" Great Book for people in leadership positions or people wanting to get into leadership. Very insightful and motivating. "

" A few interesting insights into the culture at Disney and Marriott, but overall the common sense leadership strategies are lacking and simply too common "

" Nothing terribly earth shattering and fairly repetitive, but most of these books tend to be that way, right? The stories basically just made me want to visit Disney. "

" The only leadership book I've ever read that made me cry a little. Good stories and good advice. "

" This is being added to my shelves. Every business major should read this book. Only regret is that I hadn't read this sooner. "

" Good ideas, terrible presentation. 10 section each with 15-20 loosely related subsections makes it read like a top 250 leadership ideas instead of 10. "

" Taking management principles from Disney and breaking them down into easy steps, well, steps. Awesome book! I want my own copy. "

" Wow, fantastic book. So many great ideas. Part of the Disney magic is that they are so willing to share exactly what they do. Now the challenge is to reproduce and adapt as many pieces as I can in my own professional career. I'm sure I'll be reviewing this book for years to come. "

" Fantastic book on leadership that anyone in a management or leadership position MUST read. Cockerell says right in the title that it is common sense, but it is amazing how many people don't use common sense. With real world examples, the book is inspiring and should be added to your collection. "

" Excellent book. Related leadership to real life and easy to implement practical applications "

" I liked it very much. The information and ideas were directly applicable to consulting. "

" This was a great leadership read that envelops all aspects of leading. While I have read it through once I am already going back to reread sections. Simply Magical! "

" Amazing advice on leadership, giving insight into how Disney has become a world-class company "

" Quite fascinating book. I like this Lee guy. He seems like an awesome person and his leadership advice is wonderful. I highly recommend this book. "

" One of my top 5 leadership books. I subscribe to his blog as well. Excellent leader! "

" I would recommend this to anyone in a leadership or managerial role, and would recommend to anyone wanting to learn about leadership as well. Direct, insightful and easy to read. Especially applicable to the service industry as that is the environment from where the author came. "

" Creating Magic is an inspiring book. I'm a huge fan of Disney, it's resorts, parks and movies. It's great to get some insight in the story behind the scenes. And I must say, I completely agree on al 10 strategies mentioned in this book. Well recommended! "

" Delightful easy read with wonderful common-sense strategies for not only success in the workplace, but in life. "

" Creating Magic shares the secrets of Disneyland's continued success. After reading some of the stories which made their strategies more real, I was "enchanted" by the magic that Disneyland casts on everyone. A must read for people in the Customer Service industry. "

" briliant ....! "

" Great book on leadership and inspiring others. I highly recommend it! "

" Rehash of same stuff - bottom line message - treat others with respect - golden rule - "

" I loved this book! I bought 2 copies for my 2 assitants and I spent a meeting and held one-on-one interviews with my employees based on this book! So good for anyone who wants to be a better leader! Plus its Disney so its a win-win situation! "

" I loved this book. It was so practical and there were definitely some takeaways for me that I will use immediately as a leader. I will probably be revisiting this book from time to time to be reminded of the simple yet powerful principles found in its pages. "

" On of the best books on Leadership I have read. Through engaging stories and examples, Cockerell shares his life experience in leadership. "

" This book is very easy to read, and gives simple, common-sense advice on leadership that can be applied at any "management" level. The examples are Walt Disney World-related, so this book is perfect for Disney fans. But no Disney "background" is required. "

" This was interesting and easy to read, and it contained some useful tips. "
