In this webinar, we will cover...
In this special 70th anniversary session, attendees will learn:
-
How Walt Disney overcame constant rejection, bankruptcy, and personal loss to open Disneyland in 1955—and how those same principles apply to your business or leadership journey in 2025.
-
Why purpose is more powerful than profit—and how staying rooted in a personal mission can carry you through the hardest moments.
-
What to do when everything goes wrong—and the “Main Street mindset” that keeps progress moving forward.
-
The power of partnership, and why you can't succeed alone (just like Walt couldn't have done it without Roy).
-
A behind-the-scenes look at how Disneyland’s struggles in the 1950s mirror the same innovation pressures and growth challenges today’s entrepreneurs face.
-
Fun facts from Disneyland’s Opening Day!
