Description

Stop letting great ideas die in drawers. Learn the Disney Method that transforms brainstorming chaos into immediate action.

You know the drill: fantastic brainstorming session, sticky notes flying, everyone energized... then weeks later, those brilliant ideas are collecting dust, untouched in a drawer. Too vague, too wild, bogged down in details and objections.

In this episode, Camilla Poli reveals Disney's game-changing approach that separates creative thinking into three distinct worlds: Dreamer (anything is possible), Realist (is this feasible?), and Critic (what's our best plan?). 

You'll discover why traditional brainstorming rewards the loudest voice and kills creativity, learn the specific warm-up exercises that unlock divergent thinking, and hear the incredible story of how one session transformed three siloed departments into an aligned team that implemented solutions the very next day.

This isn't just theory. Camilla walks through her exact process, including the moment when 16 confused leaders couldn't recognize their own roadmaps, sparking the breakthrough conversation they'd needed for years.
