Hard skills vs Human skills

Simon Sinek makes a surprise appearance at Zappos. Simon reframes the idea of 'soft skills' to 'human skills' -- skills that we should all learn and apply to both work and life.

*_Leadership_* is taking care of other people, it's taking responsibility. I good leader doesn't have to micro-manage the situation

[PmaxHomes]

Leadership is leading by example. Leaders earn respect, not instigating fear. Thank you, Simon,

[KurtBelding]

Human skills in my opinion is the most valuable!! Hit it on the head Simon!💪

[ermimendozaisais]

100% agree. I consider "soft skills" as "strong skills" which are the most important skills to have when you're a leader or learning how to be a leader.

[TanvirAhmed]

Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.

[TheCanonApologist]

A short proverb, is still a proverb and it has no limit. Thank you Simon (:

[johnricker]

I could not have agreed more and I so wishI could have been at this event.

Dear Simon Sinek
I'm running a leadership training program for PhD students to fully prepare them for the professional project that they're willing to achieve. I'd really appreciate if we can exchange more about it and share with you my perception about how we should teach leadership to build the future leaders

I'd like to see this entire presentation. I'm assuming this is from Zappos Insights, but I'm not sure. Anyone know where I can find the entire talk?

[veuri]

As a follow up, where and how do we as busy parents, business owners or employees learn these skills or find resources to teach them?

[madamelicorne]

Anyone any tips on how to learn this skills yourself? Book tips?

[SHAREandGROW]

Let's just not allow technocrats to treat us as "human resources"! Let's make the technocrats our allies and teach them AND uns human skills together!

[istaavno]

Simon much of what you teach aligns and mirrors the humanity first approach which Andrew Yang is trying to lead as part of his bid for presidency. Any chance you can throw him your support and join the Yang Gang movement!!!

[AarnMD]

I think that we need to take leadership training on ourselves as individuals, and that expecting our employers to train better leaders is never going to happen. An employer will only ever create managers, leadership comes from within.

*Human Skills Are so damn important. Vitamin Relationship* 🙏
