My name is Eric Schleicher. I am a future Penn State graduate (May 2010) The past few months, i have had the oppertunity to participate in the Disney College Program. Here is snap shot of my experiances and what I learned while there:

March 10, 2010

Well, only about a month left in the program. I have been working 55-60 hour work weeks. Defiantly no time for sleep. I have been very busy with my work schedule, scheduling meetings with upper management and having mentor meetings with my managers. Yesterday, I met an individual by the name of Theo Porter. He is one of the head managers at the Magic Kingdom. The nice thing was he was able to connect with me because he went through the same program I am going through about 15 years ago. We spoke for roughly 30 min. on what I can do to make the most of my program and how to develop into a, “grade A” professional. He also recommended that I read a book called, “Now Discover Your Strengths” by Marcus Buckingham. Needless to say, I will be going to the Disney library as soon as I can!
