Who has time to sleep in class?

Both classes I had yesterday where so interesting and yet so different. In my first class we got a behind the scenes tour of The Tower of Terror, we got a chance to get a special tour from one of five remaining cast members who opened the attraction a little over thirteen years ago. We were able to see various aspects of the attraction many will never be able to see, even some cast members. It was so interesting to be able to get a glimpse of how the attraction operates on a daily basis, and some of the planning and processes required to open the attraction, and to keep it running smoothly since its open.
During my second class, we played a game facilitated by the Disney Institute that demonstrated our leadership ability by managing various aspects to accomplish one common goal. At first it seamed like a rather complicated game but once our team got the hang of it, things started making more sense. I can defiantly see how the game relates to a real life work scenario because of the proper strategic planning a manager must have in order to accomplish a business goal in the best possible way. It was fun and made me think at the same time, what more can I ask from a class?
