On this episode, I am talking with Kerri MacPhearson, Caitlin Busscher, Jill Hughes, and Debby Dane Browne – renowned Walt Disney World Ambassadors. Together, their experience covers four decades and over 50 years of Disney experience.
Through the decades, some lessons are consistent in the role of a Disney World Ambassador. Those lessons also apply to anyone looking to Standout. Whether it was standing out as the first ambassador on the books or persevering past rejection and finding herself in the process, these ladies know that knowing who you are and playing to the strength found in authenticity is the first step to setting yourself apart. At the heart of being an ambassador or standing out – authenticity and enthusiasm are the cornerstone and cannot be faked.
In your journey to standing out, you have to be better prepared than everyone else. Excel at what you do and know more than those around you. Just like in life, it is not a pin that makes you an ambassador. You must embody the role you are looking to fill long before the title is given to you. Show up, be positive, be on brand, and be compassionate. When you are already doing the job before it is official, it will be an extension of who you are when it happens.
Standing out is not about being perfect. It is about knowing and being intentional about who you are, who is around you, and what success is for you. These unique identifiers will help you set and stay on your course. Grow where you are planted and show up every day as the best version of yourself that you can bring.
Rise. Shine. Impact. Be the positivity you want to see in the world.
