Be a Better Leader | Simon Sinek

Choosing to become a leader is easy. Actually being a leader is hard. If we put in the effort, we can all be the leaders we wish we had.

Simon is an unshakable optimist. He believes in a bright future and our ability to build it together.

Described as “a visionary thinker with a rare intellect,” Simon has devoted his professional life to help advance a vision of the world that does not yet exist; a world in which the vast majority of people wake up every single morning inspired, feel safe wherever they are and end the day fulfilled by the work that they do.

Simon is the author of multiple best-selling books including Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, Together is Better, and The Infinite Game.

I'm fairly sure he has said this elsewhere, but another reason people don't rise to the occasion when we give them responsibility is that we don't also give them the authority that needs to accompany the responsibility. I was in a situation where I was frequently told to get something done but I was placed in a group of peers and given zero authority over tasks that were impossible to accomplish by myself. Yet only I was held accountable. It was a government job, I'll never work for the government again.

Hey YOU, incredible person reading this...The truth is you are confident and good enough already with who you are, where you are at and what you have right now to have the success you want in life. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn that skill and go after it! I believe in you so much! Have an awesome day! - Love, Nat ❤️

Thanks Simon for elaborating this point of Leadership Style - once again - I am a post graduate oncologists training supervisor & mentor - learnt a lot from you and applied in my teaching to you ....u have a unique thought process indeed

[DrRebeccaHeiss]

Successful leadership doesn't emerge from a singular vision of how things should be done - from an "expert." Successful leadership requires a diversity of opinions, asking questions, working as a team, and asking for help - this allows everyone to contribute to a shared vision for the future. Thanks for sharing!

Teaching people self dependency could be the best thing leaders do that helps them grow as individuals.
These are strategies we've starting implementing within our organization, its still pretty shaky at times but slowly we see a change in the workers and the organization itself
