- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2024I've used this book for years! I have my staff read when hired, and I give them a little bonus if they answer the questions in each chapter. WORTH IT! Buy it.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2010I have to disagree with some of the negative comments of this book. The author makes no apologies for the book being short (156 pages) - he even jokes about it at the end. What he does give you are 10 practical lessons that can be applied to any business. His job related experience gives you a behind-the-scenes (or "Backstage" from the book) peek of Disney World. I found his examples concise and easy to understand. For my MBA I have read countless business books who's authors delight in tech-talk and creating lessons and theories that often require further reading from other books to explain the principles - Mr. Snow keeps it simple and gives it to you straight. While some reviewers are quick to criticize that this book is non-technical (one reviewer wrote "for the novice"), I ask, does it have to be? Sound/simple lessons are often refreshing!
If you are sitting in a terminal waiting for your next flight - download the book to your Kindle - it will make your trip go by a little faster.
Practical + Helpful + Great examples using Disney as a backdrop + Easy read + Relevant = 5-stars.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2012I enjoyed my recent family trip to Disneyland. When I came home however, most of my memories were about the wonderful customer service we experienced while there. I looked for books that would shed insight on the training "cast members" went through. This book helped me rethink the customer service my organization provides. We have a lot to learn from the mouse.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2025A strand a study to revisit. Whether you have a huge company or you’re an entrepreneur!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2023Even if you’re not in a “business” profession this book is a GREAT read. Lots of great takeaways, an easy and quick read, and one you won’t be sorry you spent time on.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2009Just a quick couple notes . . . Dennis and I were at the D.U. at the same time. I was on a much "lower rung" and I am sure he'd not remember me slaving away with Jana Springer and Carolyn Argo; but, I knew of him.
Potential readers should know this: Dennis has condensed and presented the absolute keys to making magic work. He has done so in a concise, easy-to-read manner, too! No small feat; especially since dissertations could be written about most of his subject matter.
Executives at all levels -- especially those in service-oriented organizations -- will want to read, then re-read Dennis's work with highligher in hand (and a pencil, too, to make notes in the margins).
Congrats, Dennis, for getting it done so well. I just wish I thought to do it before you!!!
All the best,
Keith Macksey
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2019I loved reading this book on the recommendation of a friend who lives in another state. She loved the book as well. Great ideas and suggestions for improving and maximizing customer service skills. Will be reaching out to the author as I have to ask some questions that only he can answer. Will follow this up with his responses if he allows it!
