"When everything goes right, you have to give away all the credit, but when everything goes wrong, you have to take all the responsibility" - Simon Sinek
hazel aguilar honestly, watching the people under u get the credit feels way better than receiving the credit..if u lead them right..it feels way better..i know this cz i’ve been doing for years..only like 5months ago i watched simon sinek speak i realised it
It’s amazing how easy it is to listen to his messages and how un complicated he sounds to the listener. I would be very curious to his thoughts on economic policy...
Plucked from my brain and put into an eloquent and inspiring and just enough in your face teaching ... love everything about this. Thank You for spreading the message :)
For me this was all common sense. So from his message what I get which is congruent with my own perspective.... Society just lacks compassion and empathy so this message of Simon's is news for them!
i thought it was common sense until i left school and applied for a job.. then i thought "this is normal - not to be empathetic" but to be "the best no matter what" and then i found great people like Simon who remind me that i wasn't wrong all along.
@@gsftb Well, what is "right" or "wrong" exactly? I think it's up to each and everyone to decide at the end of the day. One of the most important characteristics you can obtain is integrity, honesty, and dignity. Those 3 traits alone are sufficient to make you a decent and respectable human being. Other than that, don't get caught up in "wrongs" or "rights" in everyday life, meaning don't be so judgemental. See things as they are instead, situations that play out, and how you want to deal with them.
I am doing it because the humanity in me simply will not allow me to keep quiet,when you are experiencing everything as a part of yourself,my little finger is rotting,attending to it is just natural to me,that s all, not because I am service oriented,no, I am not service oriented.
I'm not a businessman. I'm a teacher, but I believe what he said doesn't apply to only business. I want to make an environment where my students feel comfortable and willing to find their potentials. And this is what my principal should watch. When everything goes well, she doesn't appreciate our efforts, but she only criticizes us when something bad happens.
Hey my heart goes out to your response here. I hope this message finds you well but I am a motivational speaker and some of the issues that you mentioned here is what I help solve with students, teachers, and administration. I have had the privelege to travel the country living out this purpose. Would you mind hopping offline and speaking more in depth about some of these issues on a deeper level?
2nd time I've watched this and still got goosebumps. I will be sharing this with my business school students. Thank you for showing that there is and needs to be another way.
Good to revisit this guy's episode which I saw when it came out. We all need a good reminder on this one vital human quality that is hard to retain without reminding yourself from time to time.
Love this and I truly thing leaders struggle to apply this, some understand, but the practical application remains elusive for some, this feels like it provides people with the insight on to what the application could look like, thank you, Simon
Wow. It is so refreshing to hear the words empathy, long term, no winning and losing, mass layoffs. I thought we have lost them all. Thanks Simon you just stirred every soul. Love you
Wow, now I know why I couldn't get results in the finite game. I was playing an infinite game in a finite environment and I could get myself well understood. Thanks for this insight. It is enormously helpful. I feel you ant to help people and you succeeded today.
A must watch video for all, particularly young managers and leaders. I feel it is important to get the perspective right from the beginning of one's career.
I'm an old retired middle level manager, and we never heard this type of motivational speeches before about how to manage. Every time Simon opens his mouth I am amazed, because he speaks to Perspective and Empathy and the need for Altruistic leaders as a way for businesses to sustain their forward movement and to treat their most important assets, their employees, as if they matter. If you can please pass this one to everyone on your mailing list. Businesses need to hear this more than they need profits in the short term.
That is why I took my old self out of retirement to join the Conscious Capitalism Movement. I was the oldest person in the first class of consultants, and now am on fire to help bring humanity to business. Heck, Michaelangelo was 71 when he became the architect and engineer for St. Peter's. I can help the movement. @rumplestiltskin Come out and work with us.
Wow... I have said these things about parenting and management vs leadership to my friends so many times ... It is amazing to hear someone else articulate the same ideas. I'm so glad to know that people are listening to Simon Sinek, because it's just common sense.
Excellent Simon Sinek, as expressive, as right as always. Excellent!! Leaders, responsible for those in charge. it's a beautiful job, it's about the people.
This is a brilliant talk. We focus so often on the "ideal" result in business, on an extremely irrational timetable, that we forget that both time and, _more importantly_, emotionally invested *people* lay the foundation for the ideal. A slow quarter or year doesn't spell permanent loss for shareholders. The greatest businesses that exist today *ALL* started before they IPOed. Passion drives success and nothing is less passion-motivating than rigid performance metrics, disconnected or metric-based management, or a cultural fear of failure.
Who are those 290 dislikes? Seriously what is wrong with people 😡? Do you hear eye-opening leadership advice for your company every day? There isn't a single downside about the things he says. If everyone feels more secure and fulfilled in their work environment they are more happy. If they are happier they are doing their job better and are more friendly to the customers. Satisfied and happy customers means more job for the company itself 😊. There are so many aspects in life that depend on how we are treated and how we treat others.
Great video but that Finite Vs Infinite REALLY hit home. It has me sitting here thinking about my relationship & past relationships for some reason. I LOVE that part of the video the BEST! Thank you for this.
This world is becoming more and more void of empathy and compassion, it is a sad and bitter development. For those who still posses this gift I ask to share your story with me and the rest of the world: Good or bad, pain or joy. I am looking forward to your reaction. Thank you.
Thank you, sir, Today lecture I learn how to play for success and compare yourself to yourself not others and I think that's the formula of success. Thanks and love you, sir.
I am not business minded whatsoever, but I work with youth and love analyzing human behavior. Simon Sinek has made my life so much simpler and more enjoyable. Love this guy.
Agree. People in this world need more empathy, mercy and compassion and forgiveness. And Love one another + Start within your family and spread out to the world.
Empathy is an important and valuable trait indeed. When we express empathy towards others, we feel better about ourselves as well as the person receiving it. Sadly, in this world where we have to first and foremost care about ourselves, we can only show empathy at certain moments in our lives. To forget ourselves and to give to other's is very honorable, but serves no meaning unless we can fully take care of ourselves and do what is best for ourselves :)
One of the best speech I've ever heard. I made my Bachelor degree's thesis based on Emotional Intelligence, and I wish I could watch this video to make everything easier.
Emotional intelligence is a made-up term. There have been a lot of papers written about it however it amounts to nothing more than "agreeableness" the term emotional intelligence was coined by some journalist. What does it mean anyway? That I can infer what you're thinking or feeling. Maybe I know exactly what you're thinking and feeling and just don't give two shits. How do you differentiate emotional intelligence from empathy or sympathy? By the way it turns out that people who lack agreeableness and are disagreeable are the ones that succeed in the workplace. Not the other way around. Don't feed into the hype. I know they teach this in schools but schools are often wrong this is one case of many. I do hope you got your bachelor's degree and a good score on your thesis. I wish you well. Life itself is a classroom you can learn everywhere.
I don't like both adjectives. Agreeable and disagreeable. Let's rather use full sentences and say that emotionally intelligent people agree when they agree, disagree when they disagree. That's it. You don't have to view one as negative and the other one as positive. Feelings aren't fixated.
This speech is amazing. I'm actually reading a book on empathy and also writing an essay on it. This speech will help me with my thesis that will look something like this: Empathy is overlooked in today's society and needs to be understood so today's leaders can help build better future leaders.
Kevin Flanagan do you want to share your essay on empathy , I would want to read . Also if you could share books or material you have read on the topic. Thanks in advance. Cheers
Omg nobody really is talking about these anymore.. i want to invite him to my company I’m almost in tears on my way to go to work now So inspiring Thank you!
