Navigating change like Disney / Pixar
One thing you should know about me is that I’m a huge animated movie nerd. I could spend days watching Pixar movies, and have! As I went looking for inspiration about how small creative teams manage change for my latest academic paper on sustainability leadership, I happily re-discovered Ed Catmull’s book Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces that Stand in the Way of True Inspiration.
Catmull is the Co-founder of Pixar and was the President of Walt Disney Animation Studios. His 37 principles of how the company operates, including how they navigate change, hold business and life lessons for all of us.
Jonathan Michael from the company Bplans pulled together these Catmull quotes and created a set of graphics with photos by Disney / Pixar that will have your brain buzzing with ideas. I hope you find them as inspirational as I do.
