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.

We need a culture of meritocracy. That everyone has the same access to resources, but the best are the ones that get the roles and positions, regardless of the color of their skin, gender, etc
"Do you have eight minutes? " ❤ love it!
So my wife works at a computer center about 25 miles outside of our town. We live in South dakota, so snow is always a concern during the winter time, and will sometimes shut down the road so she can't get there. She's only required to be at work two days a week. Aside from the snow events, but not having a hundred-dollar gas pump bill every week is a definite plus. I can definitely say that not having to go to work physically and being able to do your job from home will definitely help with people who can't pay for gas to get to work.
Thank you simo ❤❤❤
Exact, ce n'est pas le leader qui est responsable de l'environnement c'est l'équipe sur le terrain. Vous avez donné le crédit à votre équipe dans ce talk c'est super.
Glad to hear they think they are the best. It makes them vulnerable. Vanessa needs to listen to Simon. He's warning her.

Definitely, what a great guy. He is so inspiring in every single way. I would love to have the chance to invite you a coffee and thank you personally for all you have taught me.
Very pertinent points learnt today
Awesome behavior, honesty, and respect
Go for it now! The future is promised to no one ❤
Love the video, Simon. It's just a bit quiet compared to other YT vids. I had to turn all of my volume up to 100% to hear.
Service Now ? I love Service Now
Leaders are human as far as they're not narcissists.
Simon distinction between optimism and toxic positivity is crucial for leadership, especially in high-growth environments like ServiceNow. Emphasizing realistic optimism over blind positivity can sustain morale and drive genuine engagement among teams.
can this be shared by other people for more reach, discussions, training and education???
👍

Felt like the lady on this call is talking based on a practiced manuscript. Word of advice please be yourself
Simon is awesome. But the egotistical grandstanding of the female interviewer, EVEN AFTER Simon gently brought her down a few pegs, is nauseating and disappointing. She’s not there for Simon, she’s there for herself. Ironically.

I noticed that as well. The organization might be performing now and riding the high but we'll see how those stellar reviews look in a few years once there are some hard times for leadership to navigate.
