Which is the dream company you always wanted to work for?
Many people say these two: Apple and Disney.
Jeff Archambault has worked with both of these iconic companies. A short stint at Apple, followed by a long and illustrious 25 year career at the Walt Disney Company, where he served in leadership roles in Finance, Operations, Corporate Communications and CSR.
Drawing on all his hard earned lessons from the corporate world, he has reinvented himself as an Executive Coach, a Lecturer and a Mentor to startups. He is busier than ever. Which made it extremely hard to get hold of him for this podcast!
Jeff is a strong believer in the power of networks, relationships and in taking a 'global' view of your career. After all, its a small world - just like the name of every child's all-time favorite ride in Disneyland.
In this episode we talk with Jeff about:
- How armed with a Stanford MBA he pivoted from Wall Street to Disney, via Silicon Valley
- His expat experiences as an American moving to Paris to work in Apple and then Disneyland
- Dealing with hostile worker unions in France
- Reinventing himself as a lecturer, coach and startup mentor after a 40 year corporate career
- Dollops of his best advice for ambitious career professionals
Don't miss this ride! You have a fast pass ticket right to the head of the queue :-)
