Catalyst 2014: Simon Sinek





Simon Sinek
Leaders Eat Last
Professor







In the military we give medals to people who are willing to give their lives for others to gain. In business we give bonuses to those willing to sacrifice others so that they will gain.

People do extraordinary things in extraordinary environments. Leaders are responsible to create the environment.
Trust is the foundation of leading well. Trust is the good of the tribe.
Leaders must have courage. That's it. It requires sacrifice.
Leadership is not a rank, it's a choice.
You can not tell you are a good parent or leadership in a day to day comparison. It must be viewed in large patches.
Strong comparison between leadership and parenting.
-     I'm a leader of people...can't do it without people. It's all about sacrifice.
-     Parents don't exists without children.
-     Great leaders would never sacrifice the people to save the numbers but the numbers to save the people.

-     Only thing people learn from parents: love self, love others

Be the leader you wish you had.
Serve those who serve others.

The best leaders are the best followers.
