#SimonSinek
A good leader prepares, teaches, motivates, inspires, and encourages those team members in their charge to do their jobs well so that they don't have to step in and do them for them. This dynamic leads to increases in overall productivity, strong team spirit and effort as opposed to frustration, apathy and hostility. When a leader does their job well they don't need to micromanage because they trust in their ability to prepare their team members well and that they are each capable individually and as together as a team to get the job done. 💛
Just got fired by my manager today, he didn't do any of this lol
@@theinsultingfrenchman5052 Unfortunately many aren't good leaders. I'm sorry you had a rough day. It doesn't sound like it was a great place to work. I hope you find a healthier work environment with better management next time around.💛 Wishing you success and happiness in the future and best of luck finding a new job.🙏
@@Goldenheart2911 I truly appreciate it man that means a lot, don't worry I'm not gonna give up I'll keep fighting the good fight!
@@theinsultingfrenchman5052 I'm so glad to hear that. With every ending in our lives comes an opportunity for a new beginning. Each job teaches us something about ourselves and others. When we are able to take a step back and look at the big picture with an open mind we can often see things that we did and could have done differently and what others did and could have done differently as well. No one is perfect especially in a workplace situation. There are a lot of variables that can add or detract value from each of our overall experiences. By taking the lessons learned we can work towards taking steps to make our next experience different and better than the last. 💛
Keep your head up and get back out there and find a job that is the right fit for you . People always say make sure you put your best foot forward in the interview and I agree; however the interviewer needs to do the same as well as they represent the vibe of what the company stands for and the type of people they employee. If you don't feel like it's a good fit from the start keep on looking, because the environment and the people you work with can make all of the difference in your day.💛
Take one day at a time and be kind to yourself along the way. The one benefit of falling down is you have the opportunity to get back up again and come back stronger then ever. 🙏💛😊
@@Goldenheart2911 You kind soul
Agree. Leaders must be empathetic, compassionate, and understanding, and should be able to connect with each team member on an individual level. That goes way beyond just being in charge of the work that needs to be done.
"You're responsible for those in your charge." Great point.
I wish people would recognize this as leadership in real life. This is how I treat my team, but upward management despise me for caring for those below me. Like it pains them to see others succeed in life.
I love you Simon. You’ve ignited the spark of leadership in my life, and then taught me heaps about how to develop my leadership. May your legacy live long 💙
These leadership transitions can be so tricky. Many times, what made us successful in our former job will be the same things that hold us back in the new role as leader.
Leadership is a position of service. Are there some sacrifices to be made? Yes. However, I personally feel and believe that the rewards inherent of service outweigh the sacrifices.
It saddens me to say that nearly all senior managers have no interest in the leadership you’re describing. In developing people under me, I was cut twice in RIFs.
Truee
This is so true! That's why we make such a big effort to listen and care for our employees.
I love this guy's brain. I am not a zombie.
Very true. Nobody teaches you once you reach middle management level.
True!!!!!!
Exactly! Nobody teaches us how to be a good leader. It's just something we need to learn by trial and error.
Amazing Simon Sinek!!!❤
So Apt
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but the Army used to have a dual track for enlisted to progress, one for leadership and one for technical merit, since not everyone who was good at their job was also well suited to be a leader, but yet they still deserved seniority / progression as they stayed in expert roles and developed their missions. I wish that was more common so the best kept getting "promoted" without hitting Peter principle levels of incompetence in leadership.
Some leaders don’t care about those they are in charge of by bullying, avoiding, or not acknowledging them, discrediting them.. even in front of others who those won’t speak against the leader
Yes yes yes
The absolute truth!
Sooooooo true Simon and well said....as always! 😀👍
Thank you
Your clarity and message amazes me every time I hear you. God bless🙏
I thought the end would merge with the begining lol. Wise words as always
A great leader leverages their authority for the benefit of those under their authority.
I’ve always said, as a people manager, my job is to work my way out of a job by developing talent to come up and take my position. We all move on eventually, and my position should be taken by someone I’ve made ready for the role.
So good here
Damn. 👀 summed it up sweetly
A good leader knows when to follow
Of course, another career path - the one I took - was to dig deeply and broadly into highly useful technologies to become a subject matter expert. Not everyone is cut out to be a supervisor although most of us can be leaders in one way or another.
Interesting....
Yes❤❤amen smart guy 🎉🎉
A true leader loves his people and his land, that means the leader will not lead his people to war but towards peace, the leader will not divide . Because the leader is not alone she/he might even have to fight of the rotten apples near her/him if the people loves their leader they want the same no war no fight but a solution , and teach the rotten apples what love really is.
👍🏻 keep it up
If you're good at your job, you don't always get promoted because people promote those they are fond of or related to first. I lost getting a job at 18-19 yrs old. Not because I wasn't good at testing for the job. The boss told me I would fit in great and was a precise, fast key puncher (type of typist) but he wasn't hiring me because his niece needed a job. Go figure that out.
Actually, with no one rely on! Load on!
This is more to technical hands-on positions or structures, when it comes to function hands-on, merely we look after for any decisions to make.
True, unless ur in the military ❤
Going to see what reaction this receives sharing this with the team 😅
Genius …
🖤

The Charge 🫶
😮😊
Excellent message! But, we live in a society that all levels of people (educated and uneducated) discriminate everywhere. So, how do you deal with this sick issue? Simon makes it sound really good but in reality society doesn't look that way. I've lived through this life and discrimination and racism are big parts in America today.

Do you know a person who is trustable, educated and that is knowledgeable can all have same products if they have cognitive skills and its not exhageratable great. Some people have communication skills better, some have persution skills better, some have the charisma, these aren't needed too in getting the job done . Other mean ways and accomplishment is not worth getting there too that are unfits there. But these are with most humans that are wasting their time thinking something is greater there than they are... Don't exhalt positions that's not the same as perceiving and achieving the reals. That's not even knowing the existing problems changes too
Could you talk to Jeff Bezos, please?
How can one be a good leader and yet not be taken for granted by juniors?
Uncle Ben?
Someone (tag)/send this to Kanye
You should be encouraging people to be entrepreneurs instead to be employees
No - if you are good at your job they leave you there and get someone who knows less to manage you and make 4 times more than you. That's how it works. The worker bees are there to work , not take charge. Keep up the work, you can't have people black pilled all the time.
THIS IS A FACT!!!
What's a black pill
@@GavriloPewPew i was thinking black balled..you get held back intentionally 😮
Will you marry me 💍 ?! 🤪 what da man 😻
No! Leader is a pride, its not a position too anymore, when education and information is for everyone, Its simply persuasions, its terrible its actually crime in today's reality.. Only criminals can opt that too. to take away sanity . Children have to obey parents, families should be greatest. Jobs are only to serve. Complicating that is not needed atall people want to act like great just leave them dance poor IQ lesser Some sort of inferiority complex..
I love you Simon. You’ve ignited the spark of leadership in my life, and then taught me heaps about how to develop my leadership. May your legacy live long 💙
