A conference keynote by Melinda Seckington that draws parallels between Disney's five operational keys (Safety, Courtesy, Inclusion, Efficiency, Show) and building effective engineering teams. Each key maps to a team practice: psychological safety and blameless retrospectives, personalized recognition using models like BICEPS and love languages, embracing neurodiversity and work style differences, reducing cognitive load and streamlining workflows, and creating memorable team moments. The talk argues that great team experiences are intentionally designed, not accidental, and that anyone regardless of title can start making small changes.
