What Makes a Good Leader?

“Reality, it seems, is multiple, and tightly coupled to perception.” - Diana Slattery

Join Jason Silva every week as he freestyles his way into the complex systems of society, technology and human existence and discusses the truth and beauty of science in a form of existential jazz. New episodes every Tuesday.

These last two videos that you have uploaded have truly been amazing, and expertly edited, great job!

Just to be clear, this describes an effectively 'good' leader, not necessarily an ethically 'good' leader.

4 years have passed Still this video creates that similar awe, that inspiring feeling like for first time Everytime even after consuming it for thousands of times..

Steve Jobs said LSD was one of the most important experiences in his life.

I don't think I could ever dislike one of your videos. And thats not meant as a challenge, but so long as you continue to preach truth of this magnitude, and in such a spectacular fashion, I'll be listening. Thank you, for what you do. Despite how many other cool channels there are on YouTube, Shots of Awe has remained, by far, my favorite one.

Manipulating perceptions is powerful tool indeed, but we should not forget that it also can be used as very dangerous tool.

This channel distorts my reality every week, thank you guys!

Crushin on you, Jason. Never go away - your videos are unbelievably invaluable to any audience not completely disengaged from life. Thank you.

I'm always amazed when I see something in a new way. For example, this will probably sound stupid (I couldn't recall a better example), but pouring water in a glass is using glass to stop the water from falling on the ground. If you understood what I was trying to say, comment more examples!

I love shots of awe, it is showing me around myself, as like a guide to inspire me to be able too see and interact within not just my reality but other people as well.

What Jason is saying here is that, to become good leaders, all we need do is change the status quo. That is my interpretation of distorting reality.

[JodsLife]

I'm so glad this had no political bias on it. Thanks for another great video!

[DavidNiedbala]

this video describes you Jason! Your the leader.

[frozeneternity]

Dude, you have this reality distortion field for sure. 100% and more.
I love these videos because of the different perceptives you introduce ;)

[DesertGardenLV]

Music really added something to this one.

[maureenoconnell]

A leadership role is a very challenging job. Being future oriented is a vital characteristic of a leader.

[suhask]

I like how you actually used the reality distortion field when you played that inspirational music in the background.

[theurbangardener]

Awesome video. The power of the imagination turned into reality is the ultimate way to create.

[BPeezy]

I'm back 6 years later. Time to refresh my mind.

[DavidSherefkin]

One of the best videos ever made in the History of Time !
