Disney Business Seminars

[schucrew]

Has anyone ever attended a Disney Seminar for businesses? Apparently Disney is taking its seminar on successful business practices "on the road" and our local Chamber of Commerce is offerring a one-day workshop, presented by Disney, in August.
I saw the Disney logo and the brochure got my immediate attention , but the price is about $400 for the day. Can anyone tell me if it would be worth my time and money?

(Not sure if there would be a better board on which to post this - if so, please move it. Thanks)

YES !!! In January 2000, my company sent 6 employees to the "Disney's Approach to People Management" Seminar. It was a 3 day seminar. We stayed at the Disney Institute. We had Jeff Noel and Mary Cooper as our Facilitators. Jeff, Mary and the seminar were excellent! I think it was well worth the time and money spent. The company paid for everything and I was pleased with the time we spent learning.... and playing in WDW.


Thanks

I attended Human Resourse Seminars through the Disney Institute in '98, '99 and '00. Two were at the Yacht Club Resort and one at the Villas. They were terrific seminars. I would highly recommend them if they are still available. I have heard that the Disney Institute has shut down though.
